Apple-Blueberry Pie

This pie is as American as baseball and leisurely Sunday afternoons. I love to make it when guests come to visit, when it’s autumn, when we’re celebrating something, or during apple season in Fall. It was created as a hybrid of recipes by my friend Anthony Masiello, and when I first tried it, I was hooked . I like to add blueberries to it for a little extra sweetness. It tastes as good or better than any apple pie I’ve ever had. It’s not too sweet, and it’s just the right amount of apple-blueberry deliciousness to win us over every time.
