Cheddar Crust Apple Pie image

Apples and cheese are natural companions. This golden cheddar crust is something special for the spicy apple filling. My Aunt Martha was always bragging how we all loved this pie of hers, so we better eat our dinner if we wanted any pie for dessert.

The crust was a bit dry, but the filling was delicious. I'll try using a different crust recipe next time.

This pie was a bit too sweet for my taste. I would have preferred a more tart apple filling.

I was skeptical about the cheddar crust, but it was amazing! It added a savory touch to the pie that complemented the sweetness of the apples perfectly.

I followed the recipe to a T, and it turned out perfectly. The pie was a beautiful golden brown color, and the crust was crispy and flaky. The filling was gooey and flavorful. My family loved it!
