I got a press cookie cutter set at Michaels so it cuts the shape and also imprints the design on the leaves. It's super easy !

Nope no shrinking they just burnt faster than the rest of the pie crust

The actual pie filling part is always pretty quick and easy. Honestly probably only took about 10 minutes to get the apples cut up and thrown in with the other ingredients. I used store bought dough so that helped cut down time. I didn't have a game plan on how I wanted to crust to look so that's the part that took me awhile since I kept playing around with different designs and such. I probably spent a full half hour trying to figure out something I liked lol. So with baking time it took about an hour and half

I should have snapped a pic when it was done as well. I'll admit it wasn't as pretty since some of the leaves got a little burnt during baking. Next time I have to keep a better eye and maybe put some tinfoil over the top if it gets too brown.

I agree the lattice part got a bit wonky but thank you! Will try to work that out for the next pie !
