Gail Hall used to bring us a Dutch Apple pie from a farm  market in Cortland NY after Thanksgiving every year. Since her parents passed away she has Thanksgiving here so Ken wanted me to find a recipe similar to it. After several trials here is the recipe I created and it tastes almost as good as that farm market  pie!
