    This recipe is easy and delicious. I used a little less than a 1/4 cup of agave nectar instead of sugar and it turned out great.

    All I can say is AMAZING !! I made it twice in the last 2 days !! I added a dash of cinnamon along with the sugar to the apples, then sprinkled the top of the crostata with cinnamon sugar before baking. My family and I like it just as much as an apple pie, but with 1/2 the work ! Thanks Giada !!

    Easy and delicious. I used 1/3 whole wheat flour and 2/3 all purpose, for a little extra nuttiness in the crust. And I put a little fleur de sel instead of regular salt in the crust. It was delicious with frozen yogurt!

    I made this last night and it was so good!! It was my 1st time so there were some problems. I didnt spoon all the juices from the bowl into the pie because I was afraid it might get soggy but at the end it was a little dry. Next time i will pour in every last drop. And i think the cooking time was kind of off because i put the crostata in for 30 and the top was perfect golden but the bottom was getting black so make sure you keep an eye on it. But it did tasted good still. I served it with vanilla ice cream for my bf and i and we both had seconds. for some people who crostatas didn't keep their shape, make sure you dont roll them out too thin, 11 inches in diameter only and it will keep its shape. Also, try some cinnamon spice in with the apples, you will love it even more! I will definitely make this again soon and i'm sure it will be even better then!!! This recipe is a must try for all you bakers & non-bakers out there.

    For anyone having trouble transferring this dessert to a Serving Plate, try this:

    Pick up the parchment with dessert, move to your serving plate; then carefully slide the paper away from the dessert. I did so and had no troubles.
