This is the best apple pie I have ever made. I included the raisins and walnuts, which made the pie delicious. The only problem I had was that the baking time was not long enough, even though the pie looked done. It was still a little runny inside, but that didn't change the flavor. I would definitely make it again. Thanks for sharing!

Bama Babe....this pie is the best....I used splenda in place of the white sugar and used craisens instead of raisens....it was soooooo good. Got rave reviews at our family get-to-gether. thanks for a real winner.

This is an excellent fall pie. I would recommend granny smith apples.
