Refreshing classic apple pie with a hint of lemon and vanilla. Made from scratch and a baking time of an hour, but it's really worth it. That smell, wow!
It looks so delicious. I can't wait to the next days off to make this dish myself. I love cooking even though I am not good at it. Anyways, thank you for the recipe. 
Hi Denise, please let us know what you think of the recipe when you've made the apple pie :) 
Hi, the pie is so amazing. You said that "Yield: 8 people" but when I finished my cooking, my 2 children ate the pie in just 5 minutes. They are so cute. Thanks for bring my children a great recipe.
Hi Lauren, that's amazing! They must be so full of delicious apple pie! 
Really loved this classic apple pie recipe. The way you described it in your post makes it look very easy to cook. Many thanks for sharing!
Thanks a lot, great to hear! :D 
Classic apple pie recipe, I really loved it and trying at home to made
So nice to hear you liked the apple pie, Ruth! 
Some good ideas in this recipe which I tweaked a bit. I'd not used breadcrumbs on top of pastry before and that worked really well, and the lemon in the pastry was subtle but a nice touch. I thought that lemon and spice and vanilla were too many flavours and so I omitted the vanilla and used a mix spice (cinnamon, star anise and cardamom) instead of plain cinnamon. The apricot jam on the lattice work top also worked well. A really good recipe that is going to be cooked often (but impossible to prep in 30 minutes!)
Hi Russell, thanks so much! Just a hint of cinnamon and vanilla is common for a classic Dutch apple pie. But the extra star anise and cardamom also sounds delicious, those spices are right up my alley! The lemon juice is refreshing and helps prevent the apples' discolouration. So win win. Really? How much longer than 30 minutes did it take for you?
