I make apple pies often. I prefer the Jonathan Gold apples to other types. I mix Apple Pie Spice with the sugar and I also make my own crusts from scratch. Make a batch of crust at one time, enough for two double crust pies and 1 single crust or 5 single crust pies. When my batch of mixed crust is made, I make five balls each weighing around 10-12oz each, flatten them one at a time and wrap each one in Foil or saran wrap place in freezer until I need one to make a pie. I flatten them so it doesn't take too long to thaw on the counter. The crust recipe was given to me by my sister-in-law aroun

This is not a review but a question for Pillsbury Inc. Will you ever be making a frozen pie crust for ten inch pies? The current ones really need to be stretched to make it into a ten inch pie pan and you are left with little crust to fold over the edge. I ask this because we have a big family and 10 inch crusts would work better for us. .
