My first attempt at making an apple pie all by myself! Usually Mom makes the holiday apple pies, but I volunteered to make this one for Thanksgiving, mainly because I wanted to try this recipe. It comes courtesy of John Kirkwood, an absolutely adorably charming chef whose YouTube channel is a delight to watch.
