I just made this with my five-year old daughter. Two issues so far (It is still in the oven.): it states 1 1/2 tbs flour in the list of ingredients, but not in the directions. (Did I miss it?) I only realized this after putting it in the oven. The second issue is that this recipe should state a deep pie crust as I have quite a bit of filling left over and filled it to the absolute top. If I’d had another regular pie crust on hand I would have just made two instead. I’m hoping it turns out! We will see in about 6 1/2 hours.
