Apple Pie Recipe

This is not your average apple pie recipe, it’s the best apple pie ever!

Everyone in my family loves apple pie and they always ask me to make it for them. This is the best apple pie you’ll ever have! I’ve been using the same recipe that I’ve had since my high school cooking class and it’s simply the best!

I use Red Delicious apples and they always seem to work out the best. I’ve tried other apples but this recipe is perfect for Red Delicious.

pastry tips

One of my best tips for making pie pastry is to not handle it too much. Once the dough is gently mixed (I add the liquid to the dry ingredients and blend with a fork), I place two pieces of plastic wrap on the counter, cut the pastry dough in half and put one half on each piece of plastic wrap. The dough will be formed just a little bit.

Then you wrap it up tightly and you can mix it a bit IN the plastic wrap and then chill for one hour in the fridge. That’s the other best tip. I know lots of people skip the chilling part as they just want to get on with making the pastry but it needs to happen (even just 20-30 minutes!). Once I pop the dough in the fridge, I make the pie filling so I’m not just waiting around.

I cut, peel and core apples using an apple peeler. It makes the job so easy!

Make sure to dot with butter.

Note: You can tell by this photo that these apples were hand sliced. I find no difference in the way it’s baked whether you use an apple peeler or hand peeling, coring and slicing the apples.

Be sure vent the top for steam before popping in the oven.

    This looks so delicious! I absolutely love apples and apple pie, but I am not a fan of Red Delicious apples. Do you ever use other types or am I missing something about using RD in a pie?

      Absolutely not Dawn! Use whatever apples you like most. You really can’t go wrong with any apple, except maybe a sour crab apple! Granny Smith, Golden Delicious, Mmmmm, all good!

Do you know what all these beautiful rooms have in Do you know what all these beautiful rooms have in common! They are all painted in the same paint color - White Dove OC-17 by @benjaminmoore. 💚 White is one of the hardest colors to pick for your home. It can pick up different surrounding colors which is why you can’t just Google a paint color and paint it on your walls. 💚 For my home, Simply White has worked the best. And White Dove is very similar. Swipe to see  some of these gorgeous rooms. 💚➡️ Check my blog post for tips on the best way to pick any paint colors for your home.

Our basement is the perfect place to store seasona Our basement is the perfect place to store seasonal / holiday / decor items. I’ve had plenty of it over the years (too much!) as I’ve been blogging for 10 years! I went through all my Christmas decor this year before I packed it all away and got rid of so much! It felt so good. 💚 Next, I’ll do the same for the other holidays coming up (like Easter, I have 2 bins just for Easter!). Decluttering is easier when it’s done in stages. I’m also really into minimal seasonal decor lately so I think it will be much easier to say goodbye to the extra ‘stuff’. 💚➡️ What about you? Do you have lots of seasonal / holiday / decor items in your home? ➡️ Check out my blog posts on how to organize these items in IG stories. .

Sometimes it helps to look at your home in terms o Sometimes it helps to look at your home in terms of square footage not how the builder or the previous owner used it. My dining room was once a family room but with our small main floor already having a living room and a very small dining room, we thought this room would be better suited for a bigger dining room (swipe to see the before with the cabinet, the before before when we first bought it and the reno) 💚 It pays to look at your home differently especially during this pandemic. I think we’re all going to look at how we use our homes differently going forward. 💚➡️ What about you? Do you use a room for a different purpose than what it was intended for? .

I’m a sentimental purger! 😂 I feel most happy when everything has its place and I’ve kept a few meaningful things, but not too many. Just the right amount. It’s a very fine balance, isn’t it? Do you have a hard time with letting go of sentimental items? I have lots of tips of in my blog post ➡️ Check stories for the link and I’ll keep it in my organization highlight in my profile.
