"Karen, this pie was a big hit with my family at Thanksgiving dinner! I even had several requests for the recipe! I followed your recipe exactly and wounldn't change a thing. I'm not a big fan of meringue, so I liked the double crust idea! I will definitely be making this one again! Thanks for sharing!"
