i love to bake so i offered to make Thanksgiving pies for my family’s dinner this year. I want to use store bought crust because I don’t want to challenge myself TOO much since I’m new to pie making. I was wondering if anyone had good (thorough) recipes on how to make an apple pie? Thank you!

The secret to a good apple pie filling is using sweet apples that are in season. Among the really good pie apples are Jonathan, Stayman-Winesap, Cox’s Orange Pippin, and Jonagold, all of which provide a good mix of sweetness and tartness. Other sweet choices are Braeburn, Fuji, Mutsu, Pink Lady, Suncrisp, Rome Beauty, and Empire. Good tart baking apples include Idared, Macoun, Newton Pippin, and Northern Spy.
APPLE TREESWhat you want to stay away from are the apples that become mushy when cooked. McIntosh and Cortland are the mainstream apples that lead that list.
