Alaina on 2024-10-10 (5 stars):
This pie was delicious and beautiful. I did have to make two edits throughout. The apple filling was not thickening as written. The liquid was just sitting st the bottom of the bowl and not sticking to the apples. So, I added 1.5 tbsp of cornstarch to the liquid and mixed it all together, which did the trick. The other thing I had to do was add a splash of half and half to the bourbon glaze. It had a more frosting-like consistency as written, and the milk thinned it up just a bit and made it nice and glossy for the finishing touch. Overall, 10/10.
