Apple Praline Pie
This Apple Praline Pie is messy but oh-so-good. Isn’t that typical? Let’s face it, the messiest food is always the best tasting.
Apple Praline Pie
I love the flavours of fall – apples and cinnamon being at the top of the list. I haven’t made an apple pie in years, so I was a little anxious to put together this recipe for an Apple Praline Pie. It really wasn’t hard, because I kept it simple with minimal ingredients. Pies do not have to be intimidating.
I’ve mentioned before that I have a love for sweetened condensed milk and praline desserts so I thought combining two of my favourite flavour combinations would have winning results.
I was right.
Want to save some hassle, headache and time? I’ll let you in on my secret: use Pillsbury’s Pie Crust. It’s already rolled out the to proper thickness and rounded, just unroll on top of your pie plate. It comes with two, so you have a top and a bottom. There is no work involved, which is news to my ears since I have yet to make a homemade pie crust that hasn’t crumbled after baking.
Instead of doing a traditional pie crust top, I used pie cut outs (I got mine from Michaels but Amazon has them too) to create a festive, fall design. This adds such a fun flair to your desserts and my four-year-old loved it.
As for using Pillsbury Pie Crust, my husband commented that it was the best crust I’ve made – but that’s my secret (well, maybe now it isn’t). As I mentioned before, it’s fuss free and has a homemade quality. I love buttery and flakey crusts.
