Oy! There was another coconut cake at the place this a.m. -- a loaf coconut cake, which, well, no comment...
I did get an order for 6 mini Sour Cream Apple Pies for next week, pre-Thanksgiving. Going to have to remember what it's like to get up at like 3 or 4, to get those babies done by the early a.m.
Also, they asked for a little color atop the pies, so I think that means an egg wash.
Egg wash: In a small bowl, mix together 1 egg and a touch of water. Grab your pastry brush -- make sure it's not shedding at all -- and lightly brush the top of your crusts for some nice color.
Another pie crust tip: when attaching a top crust, or a lattice crust, to a bottom (unbaked) crust, you can use a little water to "glue" the pieces together. Works well.
