Baking is not necessarily my expertise. I absolutely love to cook, but when it comes to baking I am usually looking for the easiest recipe, without compromising the taste. This year I have been put on dessert duty, so I am making a recipe I tried out earlier in the fall.

This Apple Pie recipe is the EASIEST. I am not even exaggerating when I say that. It only takes about 20 minutes to throw together, and it tastes out of this world!!!

Let us know if you make it and Happy Thanksgiving Week friends.
