  2. This recipe has a great flavor, and not terribly sweet. When I make it again, I will not process the topping as fine, I will use more pecans, and chop them separately to be coarser, and mix in with the other topping ingredients before I put it on top of the filling. I might put some in the filling. My husband loved it.

  7. If you don’t think your apples will be juicy enough add a cup of apple juice to your filling! Works great!!
