I dislike bought crusts, so I made my own pie crust and I did not sweeten the apples with sugar, but just dusted the top with turbino sugar for glossiness. The honey-vanilla mix is lovely, but I used only about 25% of it. I will confess that I melted about 1 TB of butter and drizzled it over the top near the end of the baking. Delicious and so simple! Made in a tart pan with removable bottom.09/14/09
