The Easiest Apple Pie Ever!

Here is a recipe for a sweet ending to your Thanksgiving meal from McCormick Spice (the website has an entire section of recipes for your Holiday Feast). It’s a simple take on a special treat – Apple Pie. The free-form apple dessert, which is really like a rustic tart has all same ingredients but is super easy to make! It’s best to use Gala, Granny Smith or Braeburn apples and a great way to boost the antioxidant content is to add 1/4 cup dried cranberries or dried cherries to the fruit mixture. Hope you enjoy!
