Plagiarism (just kidding), Member rhomp2002

You stole my apple pie recipe!!! Just kidding. I have been making apple pies this way for over 50 years and have yet to find someone who does not love this pie. The flour keeps it from being so runny and the lemon gives it a clear taste and the butter makes it richer. I sometimes sprinkle a little ginger in it as well but either way it is the best!!
