This pie was just okay. The filling was a bit too sweet for my taste, and the crust was a bit too dense.

The pie was a bit dense for my liking, but the flavor was still very good. I would probably use less flour next time.

This pie was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still very good. I would probably reduce the amount of sugar in the filling next time.
