Mom's Apple Pie (EDITED)

A word of explanation before the recipe: Froggy was taught to cook by the same woman I was (our mother). So she doesn't necessarily need to measure, either! I couldn't find this recipe, so I asked her to send it to me. This is a very good apple pie recipe. Here it is:

Apple Pie

You can make 2 crusts or buy them already made.

Get a bunch of apples, peel & slice them.

Mix sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg & apple slices. Put 1 pie crust in pie pan, then pour apple mixture into pie plate. Cover with the other crust.

Cook at 375, for 50 minutes.

I use anywhere from 3/4 cup to 1 cup of sugar. I don't measure cinnamon or nutmeg. Top crust can be full crust or lattice. Sometimes I put a little sugar on top of crust before baking.

Thanks, Froggy!

Here's Froggy's edit: 

I was reading your recipes and realized that I forgot something in the Apple Pie. If you use a full top crust, make 3 or 4 small (finger size) holes in the crust. This lets out some of the steam.
