Note

Allow the pie to cool completely before slicing to ensure the filling sets properly and slices cleanly.

For a vegan option, ensure the pie crusts used are made with vegetable shortening or oil rather than lard or butter.

If you prefer a sweeter pie, you can add a tablespoon of granulated sugar or brown sugar to the apple sauce before filling the crust.

To prevent the bottom crust from becoming soggy, ensure the apple sauce is not overly watery; drain any excess liquid if necessary.
