Twin Test Kitchen: Apple Pie

     We were looking through Pinterest for new meal ideas (and what I really mean is I was looking for meal ideas when the helpers came along and saw food on my computer screen....haha) and Wyatt saw an apple pie. Immediately he remembered that he had wanted to try baking a pie, and I had told him we'd made one in the past. So, of course now we HAD to make a pie!

     After we got all the ingredients from the store, we organized our ingredients from the recipe I found and got started. We, and the recipe I used, decided to just go with a frozen pie crust, especially our first time. I can't imagine the three of us attempting to figure out how to make a pie crust... so I figured it would be much less frustrating, and probably more delicious this way. Here's the link to the recipe:

     First thing we did was get everything we needed out, and then I peeled the apples and cut the side of the apple off the core so the boys could cut up the apple into chunks. This was their first time ever cutting anything (butter knife of course) and they loved it! Plus they did a pretty good job!
After all the apple was cut up we mixed all the rest of the ingredients with the apple and put our pie together. Once it was baked it actually looked really good, and tasted good too! The boys learned that they don't like cooked apples, which pretty much ruined it for them, but Andrew and I thought it was delicious! :-)
