uwasv, I can't believe how rude you are!!!! I am over 50 and I know that MOST pies are in a round pan and have a double crust but who are you to say that this can't be a pie? It is also extremely unkind of you to say this looks like a beginning cook from a non-english speaking country. AND if you prefer a lard crust, then by all means make a lard crust. Nobody even asked you to make this recipe. If you haven't even tried it, why do you feel you have the right to write a review?

I prefer a lard crust and this recipe has the looks of a begining cook that is from a non-english speaking country. Based on the directions and ingrediants I wouldn't even think about making this one. Every one that is over the age of 50 knows that apple pies are made in a round pie pan with a double crust.
