And here's the apple pie's brother: the apple crumble. I'm terrified that the bottom crust has burned, and there's no way to know until we all try the dessert together on Thursday. But the top looks passably good:
Food-porn angle:
A lot of the "ruined" pie dough was raw after its initial par-bake (during which it collapsed, which is why I say it was ruined*). But I had made such an awesome dough that I didn't want to waste it, hence the shift to Plan B with the apple crumble. I have to say that nothing smells burned, so maybe that's a good sign. Expect photos on Thanksgiving Day.
I think I know what I want for Christmas: transparent glass bakeware. I'm sick of guessing.

*To be clear, I once again tried blind baking for no good reason. I'm still kicking myself for being so stupid, but I think I may have salvaged this crust and made something beautiful.
