Thin Crisp Apple Pie
We love the twist on this Apple Pie Recipe, a thin crisp! Everyone loves a good apple pie. In fact, if we had a national dessert this would be the all American winner! This could be a lighter idea to the end of a Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner. Consider serving with whipped cream or ice cream on top.
