Pretty, Pretty

I have this thing about making pie crust ... pretty much, I hate it. Unfortunately, I LOVE the outcome that is, any kind of yummy pie. So, in an effort to keep from exploding from having to re-roll the top crust of my apple pie 90 times, I went the easier, "no-rolling of the pie dough" route.

Example A: Crumb topping that you would normally put on an apple crisp (it tastes way better than the boring old pie crust anyway ... AND it involves zero rolling)!

Example B: Cute little pie crust cut-outs (brush with an egg-wash before baking to make the cut-outs shiny and brown) to make it fall and Thanksgiving-ish!

The result? An empty pie plate.
