Grandmother Velma's Blush Apple Pie

"My grandmother was famous for her Blush Apple Pies. I always asked her to make at least one when we went to visit. I recommend Mean Chef's Classic Pie Crust (#26205), but the refrigerated rolled crusts work too, if you are in a hurry. This is an easy and quick pie, but the flavor added by the pineapple and red hots is wonderful."
