Daddy's Apple Pie

It's getting really close to Father's Day, my first without my Dad.


My Dad and I dancing on my wedding day...
 
 
The only thing that I think is going to get me through the day is making my family an apple pie. For as long as I can remember, my Dad always got a homemade apple pie to celebrate him. Whether it be his birthday, a congratulatory meal, or Father's day... it's that apple pie! So without further ado I need an apple pie recipe and I need you help to find the best one!

 Please send me your favorite recipe and I'm going to make it, even if the apples a fifty dollars a piece and out of season.


Thanks friends!

  3. I wish I had a link for you but I'm not a fan of apple pie and have therefore never made it. I know Spark had an interesting recipe for handheld individual apple pies on their Recipes site? *hugs*
