While canning and Freezing one year I ended up coming up with this recipe. I never imagine that it would become such a family favorite. I do hate to waste and well I did not have enough of either to make one so I did a little combining and came up with this great apple pie. I now make it a Holiday tradition and it is served at my home on Thanksgiving, Christmas and Easter. Oh and course during canning season if I don't have enough to put away. Oh and don't eat to much at one time, It has a great cleansing effect. I hope you enjoy this pie as much as we have.
