Easy Apple Pie Foldover

I am back with the recipe. It is easy to make it just looks
like there is more work and ingredients. I will be
making this again and again I think. It is easy enough
I could make it when my kids have company over this summer.

Easy Apple Pie Foldover

It didn't last that long when I made it. The boys were waiting as I took it out of the
oven. I was going to take a picture of it so I could post it but as I cut it they
decided they needed samples and I was laughing at them eating this hot stuff right out
of the oven I forgot the camera.
About that time my husband came in from work and he ate it too. The boys were all
trying to figure out how they could sneak it to their room and eat it all by themselves.
So it is a good recipe. It is worth trying again, I just don't know how I would ever
make enough to make a few to even freeze them.

So this one is a keeper.

The next pie in the book is a Black-Bottom Banana Cream Pie.

Have a lovely Friday!
