Making Apple Pie


A picture of the pie I made

I have always thought that apple pies are difficult to make.  I never really understood how to make them and I had never tried. Over the thanksgiving break, I had to make an apple pie for my foods class, and the hardest part was making the crust! I was so pleasantly surprised on how easy it was! It only took an hour and a half prep time, and I thought it would take the whole day. I also had to cut up 5 apples, which took majority of the time. I thought that the filling was actually jelly plus the apples, but it turns out that you only put butter and sprinkle a sugar mixture over the apples. I thought it was very fun, and I would recommend any new bakers to try it!
