Since I happened to be in the Gail's archive, and really there is so much there, thought it would be fun to just randomly pull a recipe from there and post here, so I did!

Rec: Caramel Crunch Apple Pie

from Ann in NH with rave reviews from Bubba...

This was the 2nd Place Winner of the 1980

Wisconsin Cookbook Contest. This pie lost

to Coconut Cream Pie.
