Apple Pie

this is my scarecrow in my dried out corn patch... all my corn and sunflowers are about gone...but i can't let them go...i love to hear them rustling in the late afternoon wind...i have had the scarecrow for years and just can't bear to part with him even though he is looking kind of worn out...


we took a ride out to an old FARMSTAND with Teddy yesterday...


our apples are already starting to come in...


so i knew i had to make an APPLE PIE....


i made a quick crust...





i love my old pasrty wheel...


if i have time i always like making a lattice crust for the top...





weave it together...


and bake...tonight is the first PRESEASON football game..we're all set over here at FARMHOUSE KITCHEN.... are you ?

  1. That pastry wheel looks like a real heirloom! Did it belong to someone else in your family -- Mom, aunt, grandmother?

  10. Your pie looks fabulous, I'm still in the peach mode, but haven't been baking any pies-I'm terrible with crust. Enjoy the game, it is movie night at our house. Give Teddy a hug.

  11. Delicious looking apple pie. The smell must have been amazing. I have never made a lattice crust but Mary makes them all the time. I think I am going to have her over to give me some help with my crust. The Patriots had there pre-season game too. Where has summer gone? I have to go back to work on Sept.1st. Have a great weekend Kary!!

  17. Kary, there is a chill to the air this evening, warm apple pie accompanied with vanilla ice cream would fit the bill quite nicely. How very pretty your crust is. I am looking forward to the beauty that only fall can bring, Hugs to you and Teddy, Julie,

  19. Hi Kary and Teddy

    And am I ready for football? Never, ever, ever!
    Your fresh baked apple pie-you bet!

  20. They looks so good. I have to admit that I am jealous. I think my 5 apple trees have produced a whole 5 apples. Guess I'll have to buy them. The pie looks so yummy!

  21. You make the most delicious looking pies and the prettiest pie crusts! I love the way you flute the bottom crust! Your lattice looks beautiful! What pie crust recipe do you use?

    No RSVP required, and you and Teddy are welcome any time! The cottage needs lots of work on the inside, it's old, but clean!

  24. That pie looks like it's going to be a real treat!
    I can't get over how far ahead of us you are each season. We are really only in mid-summer now.

  25. Oh man! Look at that apple pie. Utter perfection! The apples here still have a few weeks to ripen. I can't wait!

    ReplyDelete
  26. What else do you put in? A little cinnamom, some raisins, almonds, walnuts?
    The pie looks delicious!

  28. That scarecrow is looking pretty cute to me. In fact, all of your images are making me dream of Fall, a season we don't get on this side of the world. It's 113 out right now and won't really cool off until later in the year, maybe December, if we are lucky. Winter has been pretty mild for the past couple of years. That apple pie looks soooooooooooooooooooooooooooo good! Hope your weekend is great. Tammy

  33. The scarecrow looks like the one my brother was afraid of when he was a child. I'm not a big fan of apple pies, but this one looks delicious! I love when apples get ripe and ready to pick.

  38. Oh, that looks delicious! I'm still out of country so no pre-football for me tonight. Just making sure I'm packed and ready to fly back to the states tomorrow.

  39. That looks wonderful. We make a very different applepie here in The Netherlands. We use a sweet pie dough and combine apples with sugar and raisins, sometimes this mixture is cooked first using butter and brown sugar.
    It's so nice to see all kinds of apple pies. Do you have a recipe for yours ???
    Have a wonderful day.
