It's the perfect party food!
I so do love a dessert that is minimum fuss and a sure winner for those in my family with a sweet tooth. I have adapted this recipe from another as the original I had was even sweeter. This is is still ever so sweet, but a tad less and my dessert lovers still enjoyed it. Though, small slices are recommended.
So, it isn't an apple crisp. It isn't an apple pie. I love both of those desserts, here is a really awesome variation that brings both together.
What is different about this dessert, is the dough, the dough is butter based and a tad sweet. It is easy to make also, it is a tad different to work with and roll out, sometimes more flour is needed, but not to much or the dough will harden. Anyhow, it is apple season, so not much sugar is used.
I love strawberry pie, strawberry rhubarb pie, summer berry pie, oh any pie with berries! And so once upon a time, I bit into this pie in which the berries were uncooked, fresh, in full glory, just placed in a baked pie crust and covered in this yummy glaze that added to the flavor of the berries. I was in strawberry heaven.

It's strawberry season where I live! Our strawberries are so juicy and flavourful, it is a season to gorge oneself in all that is strawberries, which I do rather well, strawberry muffins, pancakes, bars, cobbles, crisps, pies and brownies. This recipe is quick, no fail and a crowd pleaser, which is most important! Try it and share it!
