I love apple pie, so when I found this recipe I was excited. It is easier than a full blown apple pie as well as quicker to make. I sliced my apples really thin with my food processor and piled them high. I added the crispy oatmeal topping and waited! As this baked the whole house smelled like a homemade apple pie, I was in heaven. I was a little worried with how high I packed the apples, but they shrank while cooking and the pie looked lovely. I served this warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, but you could have it with whipped cream or just plain. (I forgot to take a picture so I used this picture from the original recipe from the taste of home website.)
