For this week's pie I didn't want to go shopping so I looked around my house and saw a pile of apples. As you know, I've already done a couple apple pies so I wasn't sure where I could go with them. That's when I turned to my trusty ''The Old-Fashioned Cookbook'' by Jan McBride Carlton and found Gretchen's Creamy Apple Pie.
Now I have no idea who Gretchen is. No anecdotes are shared in the cookbook regarding this recipe. However, if she's anything like her pie, she's weird but super sweet...and definitely not presentable to company.
Not only was the pie super good, it was surprisingly very easy. (Yes, I even let my little one help out.) You basically whisk a flavored whipped cream and spread it over an apple-lined pie tin. The outside of the cream will crisp -- sort of like a meringue but it doesn't hold it shape as well.
The final result is delicious and goes well with whipped cream -- just in case you really need to serve this to guests.
