I would like to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving! I hope you all had a lovely day spent with your loved ones, eating yummy food. What is everyone's favorite Thanksgiving food? Mine is Apple Pie! When I get the chance, I love to bake! To me baking is so relaxing and it is fun to make food for the people you love. I wanted to share my favorite apple pie recipe with you all. 

Apple Pie:

HOW TO MAKE CINNAMON APPLE PIE

1. Preheat the oven to 425-degrees.
2. In a large bowl, toss the apple pieces with the flour, sugar, vanilla and cinnamon. Let them sit while preparing the crust.
3. Line the bottom of a pie plate with one piece of the crust. Spoon the apple mixture into the pie plate. Cut the butter into small pieces and place on top of the pie.
4. You can decorate the top of your pie ow you would like to. I did a Turkey today for Thanksgiving!
