The Apple Pie That Mama Baked

A combination of two pie recipes that came from the same cookbook published in different years. Name inspired by my toddler who had recently read the book "The Apple Pie That Papa Baked". We got her to switch from Papa to Mama but she never called it just "apple pie".
