This is from The Dallas Morning News. It is easy to make. I love the sweet/tart combination and always enjoy making this, especially in the Fall.

This was very good. I didn't not use the frozen pie crusts rather a graham ready made crust. For the top i made some crumbs using sugar, flour and butter. Other then that i made it to your specifications and it is was delicious.
