Very good, but I'd make a few changes: I think the filling needs a little vanilla added with the amaretto. I agree with the person who said that 3 lbs was too much. I cut my finger before I finished peeling apples, so I stopped at about 2.5 lbs, and that was good--I don't think I'd do any more.
The almonds are wonderful in the topping.04/23/07

I love amaretto and thought it complimented the apples really well. Great warm out of the oven with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.03/07/06
