This is a pie to make when you don't have apples but you have everything else. It is actually pretty good. You can also make it in a bar pan to make slices, just drizzle a little icing over the top. This is a very old recipe of my great grandmother Sullivan who had 15 children... She knew how to feed them and keep them happy... Explore... And Play With Your Food! XO
