Thanksgiving may have been last week, but I’m still dreaming of apple pie. This year, I made the apple pie as our contribution to Thanksgiving. I’ve never made anything for Thanksgiving before, except for maybe helping with the mashed potatoes or taste-testing!
I think the pie turned out pretty well, except it needed more apples. I followed the recipe from America’s Test Kitchen Family Baking Book, and it’s called the Blue Ribbon Apple Pie (though, I don’t think mine would earn one, haha!). I also used good old Pillsbury Pie Crust. I love using my parents’ Apple Peeler-Corer-Slicer. It makes peeling and cutting up apples SO EASY!
This pie was delicious! Since you pre-cook the apples, it’s not all soupy inside (if that makes sense). I don’t think I had enough apples this time, so next time, I’ll make sure to load up. This recipe was simple and straightforward that even I could do it correctly!
I’m thinking that I’ll be needing to make another apple pie before the holidays are over. And this time, with ice cream!
Apple Peeler Corer Slicer – this tool will save you so much time!
Silpat Baking Mat – this is a must have if you bake – it is a nonstick mat and great for catching spills too. I’ve had mine for 14 years and they still work great!
This post is from 2012! And still a crowd favorite when it comes to looking for delicious apple pie recipes. You can’t go wrong with an America’s Test Kitchen recipe.
I’m a brand photographer and help small businesses show up confidently with a library of on-brand photos that they love.
What does that have to do with apple pie?
Well, the photos above are from 2012 and I’ve come a long way with my photography skills. I’d love to work with chefs and bakers and small businesses in the food industry.
While I don’t consider myself a “food” photographer, I can photograph food for small businesses. To help their product shine. To improve upon iPhone photos or poorly lit photos.
