OMG, this is wonderful! It tastes great and looks just as good! I used 4-5 Rome apples (can't rightly remember). The only problem I had is that the bottom mixture bubbled up and out of the pie dish. Luckily I have a spill mat on the bottom of the oven. This is a great twist on the traditional apple pie.
