Apple Pie w/ Decorative Leaf Crust

Thanksgiving week is here and this recipe is apple of my pie (I mean eye *wink wink*).

If you’re looking for something to bring to your family’s Thanksgiving feast that will knock their stretchy pants off them, then give this festive apple pie a go! It’s only the most iconic Thanksgiving dessert in the history of Thanksgiving desserts (sorry pumpkin pie). And these leaf cutouts give it a major face lift with the same delicious taste!

I used fall fondant stamps, but any small cookie cutter will work for the cutouts.

What sets this apple pie apart from the rest is that I use two layers on top of the apple filling. The first on unseen layer is the crumble topping. Personally this is my favorite part of apple pie and I wasn’t about to leave it out! The top layer is the golden brown leaf crust which adds a perfect crunch on top of the textured crumble and gooey apple filling.

Also, If you have been visiting BWTB for a while now, you know that cinnamon is practically my middle name and I often double and sometimes even triple the amount of cinnamon I use in recipes compared to most others that are similar. I love when my taste buds are punched by cinnamon with every bite I take so I tend to amp up the measurements. Feel free to adjust the cinnamon measurements to your liking, but if you’re like me, then follow this recipe for a cinnamon packed apple pie!
