After reading the reviews I decided to use less cinnamon (reduced to 1 tablespoon). This was still way too much even for cinnamon lovers like us. The apples were "brown" from the cinnamon rather than a nice apple color. I think if the cinnamon was reduced to teaspoons instead of tablespoons it would be a great pie but for our tastes, I think I'll keep searching.

I used a mix of Gala and Granny Smith, they didn't turn out how I liked so I will have to play with the apples and see what suits my taste best, thinking Spartan might be good. I absolutely loved the flakiness of the crust, it turned out perfect! Spicing was done extremely well to my likings but if you aren't big on cinnamon I would suggest adding less. I added a bit of cinnamon sugar to the top crust before baking to add a bit more sweetness. Thanks for a great recipe.

This was a great pie. It was nice and juicey. The only thing I didn't like about it was the lemon. It was a little bit to bitter. Thanks for posting!! Sincerly Super Spongebob
