Potluck Apple Pie image

In charge of dessert for a fund-raising dinner at our church, I experimented and came up with this scrumptious pie made in a jelly roll pan. It fed a group and got rave reviews. With flavorful apples and maple syrup, it gives a true taste of the Northeast. -Alma Lynne Gravel, Trappe, Pennsylvania

My family loved this apple pie! The crust was flaky and the filling was sweet and gooey. I used Granny Smith apples, and they held their shape well. I also added a bit of cinnamon and nutmeg to the filling, which gave it a nice warm flavor.
