Ingredients
  • Crust:
  • 1-1/2 cups flour
  • dash of salt
  • 1/2 cup shortening ~ cold
  • 1-1/2 cups (6 oz.) shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • Note: I like the Old white sharp cheddar cheese for this crust
  • 4-6 Tablespoons water
  • small splash of vinegar
  • Filling:
  • 1/2 cup sugar(brown or white - both work well)
  • 2 Tablespoons flour or 1-1/2 Tablespoons corn starch

  1. Heat oven to 425 degrees F.

Can't pass this one up. The combination of apples and cheddar cheese sounds decadent. Thanks for a great post.


Love this idea! My hubby STILL can't quite understand the mix of cheddar and apples, (where HE comes from they eat Haggis and Black Pudding - what can I say??!) but this Canadian sure does! Thanks for the post, Lor!


It's okay Kukla... I grew up on Haggis and Black Pudding as well but I guess I just like apple pie with the cheese ;-)


Yum! Hubby likes to top his apple pie with cheese and melt it over the top...this is great!!


Yummmmm ~ I LOVE APPLE PIE and I LOVE THE IDEA OF PUTTING CHEDDAR CHEESE IN THE CRUST!
