Apple Crumb Pie

This is the season for Homemade Apple Pie, and I have found a great recipe. It is the perfect combination of sweet, delicious, crumbly goodness. I found this recipe on Allrecipes by Jackie Smith. It gets an average 5 star rating out of 262 reviews; it doesn't disappoint.

It is a little sweeter than most apple pies, so you should make this one if you like the kind of apple pie that is crumbly with cinnamon and sugary flavors. The photo features the lattice-style topping which was a special request from the husband, but normally I would just leave it as it - it gets a beautiful golden brown.
