This pie is absolutely delicious! If you’re a beginner, use a store-bought pie crust to get a head start. You’ll still get a bushel of compliments. —Virginia Olson, West Des Moines, Iowa

Made this pie yesterday. We are definitely enjoying it, and will be making it again. I made the pie exactly like the recipe.

I've never made an apple pie before and have always wanted to. The first time I came across this recipe in the magazine I knew I wanted to make this pie. I just wanted to wait for the right time. So yesterday we had our first cold snap and I had a huge basket of apples and felt I had my opportunity. I was nervous about making the pie crust because me and pie crusts don't get along. Usually I opt for the Pillsbury dough boy. So I lovingly, just like Virginia Floren Olsen, set about to make this pie. It is the best pie ever. I can't say that enough. The pie crust turned out perfectly. I did substitute butter for the shortening in the pie crust since I didn't have any. I was so proud of my achievement in my first apple pie. My picky husband loved it. I will definately be making this again. So thank you Mrs.Olson for this wonderful pie recipe. It really is a gift.

Easy to follow recipe! My hubby loved it. I've already shared the recipe with my sister in law and plan to share with others. Delicious! And yes, I made the crust from scratch...easy and worth it!

This is a great recipe and is very easy to follow. I love the crumb topping. No wonder she makes so many over the holidays!! The only thing I did differently was add some lemon juice to the apples. This is what my dad always did and I love slight tang that it gives to the apples. I will be making this recipe many times over the holidays!

This was the first apple pie I made completely from scratch (no store-bought crust). It was very easy and delicious!

I liked this but cut the apples to 4 instead of 5 because I think it would have overflowed. Maybe it was my oven, but I also would reduce the amount of topping if I make this again. The topping didn't brown evenly, and I ended up scraping some of it off. I did use prepared crust, so maybe that had something to do with it as well. It was still good.

This is a fantastic recipe. The entire family loved it and the pie only lasted 2 evenings. This recipe is very similar to my grandmother's pie recipe. Making another one tomorrow. I did cheat and use a Pillsbury pie crust. You'd never know the difference.
