    We are very lucky because Mr Paul is in fact our next door neighbour and he always asks us to sample the recipes her makes for CZcams. This apple pie was exceptional, try it! Mr P not doing a lot for our waistlines but we have to be good neighbours. Delicious as always

    • @MrPaulsPantry

      If you place the cut apple in a bowl of acidic water (lemon juice) that will prevent all apples turning brown. I use 1/4 teaspoon of clove to 1 kg apples.
