Di, I owe you an apology because I forgot to rate this pie probably because just as quickly as it was made it was gone!!! I used macintosh apples and they added such a great taste. Served warm with vanilla bean ice cream...oh soooo good! This was great and easy to make. Thanks for the recipe, I plan on making it again it was the first time ever I made an apple pie, can't wait to make it again.

This was pretty good.. I loved the topping but did not use nuts as I did not have any.. I also cut the softened butter into the topping rather than melt it which worked well for me. The only thing I didn't care for was that the macintosh apples came out rather mushy and hubby said they were a little too sweet, but besides that it was a pretty good pie

This crumb topping was delicious! I did make a few changes, (1) I cut softened butter into the crumb mixture before topping the pies rather than drizzling on melted butter, (2) I used half white and half brown sugar. I doubled this recipe as I needed topping for two pies -- and I ended up with WAY too much topping. Great news though, the leftovers worked great for a quickly thrown together peach crisp :)<br/><br/>Thanks for the great recipe!
