Nutritional Tidbit from Audrey. This recipe was published in the 1950’s in the Farm Journal. Our style of cooking has changed a lot since that time. What they thought as fast or convenient we now see as multi step and time consuming. there are a lot of different versions of this pie, but when made correctly I still think this is the best. And for those who like an apple pie with less filling, then this pizza is for you. Remember the adage an apple a day keeps the doctor away!
