Easy Dutch Apple Pie

---

The first apple pie i ever made; easy and simple directions. And real apples, no canned apple pie filling! I made this for dessert when company was over and i figured if i screwed up, i could always pass it off as apple cobbler with ice cream served over it, but it came out great, looked and tasted like a real apple pie!
