Family favorites, we all enjoy. This is my family's. Note: I make my own crusts but you can easily use the bought crusts as I did in the recipe. This filling also makes the best apple crisps or cobblers. I have also made this in a jelly roll pan and layered the apples 2 high for a great idea for a potluck.
