Homemade Apple Pie Recipe

I have a treat to share today: homemade apple pie! Well, I guess I can’t actually *give* you apple pie–though I totally would if I could! Anyone want to come visit Pittsburgh, hang out at our zoo… I mean house, and enjoy some apple pie? You’re welcome to come on over 🤗

Corn maze and lactose-free recipe

Saturday evening was spent at a corn maze with my church. It was fun to roam through the corn, mostly lost. We found our way out eventually and got on a hay ride that brought us to a bonfire where we roasted hot dogs and marshmallows.

Time for a recipe! I love pie. Pie crust gives me a belly ache because it has dairy it in (I’m lactose-intolerant). Sad. So I searched out and tested some recipes for a dairy-free pie crust. Yippie!! The recipe is now added to my recipe tab/pages.

Dairy-free pie crust

Ingredients:

-1 cup unbleached flour

-1/2 teaspoon salt

-1/4 cup vegetable oil

-2 tablespoons cold water

Directions:

Mix flour and salt with a whisk. Stir in oil until mixed and don’t be afraid to use your hands! Add water until mixed completely. Place dough into middle of a 8 or 9-inch pie dish. Spread dough out with hands, covering the bottom of the dish, up the sides, and over the rim. Bake pie according to directions and enjoy. (Makes 1 o- or 9-inch pie crust)
