Pie Update!

Out of the oven:

It looks like an apple pie inside...

But how does it taste?

Well if you can't tell from the above, the answer is 'very nice indeed!' The pastry seems to have worked well - crisp, not too sweet but not too crumbly either. About the only change I'll make to the recipe is to note that four Granny Smiths more than filled the pie; the recipe called for six, but maybe it was assumed they'd be smaller. (Odd, my experience is that US apples are big, bloated things.)
OK, safe to repeat this next weekend. Maybe twice, as the resulting pie is not huge.
Now if you excuse me, I'm off to have seconds.
