What a wonderful recipe!! I just baked this pie and had two slices (as did Allan) so half the pie is gone already! I used sharp cheddar (white) and cut it down a little because of that. I also used a light sprinkle of allspice as I didn't have the nutmeg. Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful recipe; I'll make another soon to store in the freezer (probably 2 as Thanksgiving is coming, one for me, one for my father's)!

Yummy apple pie, I used a bought graham crust shell because it was what I had in, it worked beautifully, we loved the cheese in with the apple, wonderful flavour I used sharp old. Also used a mix of apples I happened to have on hand. It was a great dessert for our Easter dinner with whipped cream on top. Loved the crunch of the top and saved some of the cheese to add to it too. I will be making this one again, thanks for posting.

I don't think I'm a great cook but I'm the kind of cook who can walk into the kitchen and find good things in the fridge and pantry and make it into a meal that everyone thinks is pretty darn good. Sometimes I use a recipe and sometimes...not so much.
I have a great collection of cookbooks, and I love reading them and studying the pictures. Sometimes I even cook the recipes, LOL! And that is why I love Zaar, an unending source of recipes and pictures. It's heaven!
