I made this recipe several times and I did make some adjustments-rathen than use a 10" pie plate, I used two greased and floured 9" pie plates and when I prepared the milk-egg mixture, I divided it up between the two pie plates! Also, to conserve my supply of biscuit mix, I used 3/4 cup all-purpose flour for the topping & substituted quick oats for the Grape Nuts! It worked out very well! I also combined the apples with ! Tbsp. lemon juice and 1-1/4 tsp, cinnamon pls. 1/4 tsp. ground nutmeg. I was pleased with the outcome of this recipe! I plan on using this recipe as a definite keeper! Dawn E. Lowenstein
