Kentucky Apple Festival Apple Pie
By: KC_Cooker
Mar 16, 2000
I adopted this recipe during the Recipezaar abandoned account recipe adoption. This is a delicious pie with an easy, no fuss crust. The crust is tender and flaky at the same time and the flavor is just the perfect amount of sweetness! Try it and you'll see why it is a Festival winning apple pie! 10/12/04, Edited: cooking time/temperature

Looking at the other reviews, I decided to take some of that advice as well. This is the first time I've baked a pie ever. It was very easy. A couple of things I will change next time: *Crust was perfect - no change. *I will add one or two more apples, but dice them up. *Add a coupel table spoons of flour to the filling. Double the cinnamon Add one tespoon of ground nutmeg *Bake it for only 40 minutes (I did it for 50 on 350 and the apples were a bit too soft for me. I need a little bit more firmness). Either way, the pie came out great, easy to do and will be making two for Thanksgiving for my family - yeehaw!

This is a yummy recipe! I added just a dash of flour to the apple mixture, to keep apple juices a little thicker. I also found the cooking temp to be a little too high. My crust was very dark brown after only about 15 minutes. I reduced the temp to about 350 and it cooked nicely.

This is the best apple pie I have ever made (and I have been baking apple pies for 25 years!). The crust is outstanding, absolutely delicious when made with real butter. Only change I made is that I used golden delicious apples, which I had, instead of the granny smith. Highly recommended.
