Pillsbury Bake-Off Recipe Needed!! (ingredients, turkey, cake, sugar)

[breeinmo.]

I'm going nuts looking for my cookbook, and cant find it. What I'm hoping someone here has, is a certain apple pie recipe from a older bake-off little PB paperback cookbook. It has a bottom and upper crust, and what makes this recipe so unique is it has a custard filling. The only apple pie I've ever had that doesn't need ice cream to make it yummy. It also has a drizzle on top like those frozen toaster strudels. I know it takes heavy cream to make the custard.

Does anyone have it? I've searched all over the internet, and was hoping to make it this Thanksgiving. I'll owe you a big one, if you post it. Plus I can quit tearing my house apart. TIA

My emergency might be averted. Unless someone comes up with the original, I found one that sounds close, if not exact, except you don't lattice the top crust. IF this is it, I promise it'll be one of the best pies you've ever had. I cant eat a fruit pie without a ton of ice cream, and the one I'm looking for is to die for without it. Eat while warm, nuke a few seconds if its cooled.

It may be a longshot, but check out this recipe (alth. it says custard sauce) - ?

Apple Cake with Warm Vanilla Custard Sauce recipe from Pillsbury.com

NEver realized there were so many variations, lol - w/ cheesecake, sour cream etc - this list may help narrow it down

Thank you Honeycrisp, that does sound more saucy than custardy, but looks good. I think the one I posted will be close enough, but I have that icky sense something's off. I'm hoping its that it calls for milk and not just cream. I actually wrote Pillsbury, so maybe I'll get lucky. I just know I'm done looking for it. I found all the other bake-offs books, just not the right one. Who bakes a pie and doesn't put the book back? Thanks again, I appreciate it.

Oh, and I know what you mean about all the recipes!

I absolutely know where you're coming from, I misplaced a lasagna recipe not long ago, had found it online once upon a time ago and just had to persevere til I found it, there's a lot of them out there (but youre prob. luckier w/ even more apple pie recipes, lol - alth. prob. not many w/ custard). I know the booklets you're talking about and prob. have a few of them but truthfully it doesnt ring a bell, prob. bc IM not much of a pie baker (pastry baker). But it does sound intriguing, keep us posted and best of luck -

Shoot Pillsbury an email or give a call they are pretty good with old stuff.

I did Nuts and they responded that they're looking into it. Very nice company to look for me.

[nuts2uiam]

I agree.

Pillsbury is the best! They just sent me the recipe with a nice note. Now I call that service.

Hope you try it, its the best! Remember to nuke it just enough to warm the custard before eating. I'm also heavy handed with the vanilla & cinnamon.

This is a new twist on an apple pie. Everyone likes the creamy layer on the bottom. It’s kind of unexpected.
