For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a dash of cinnamon or nutmeg to the apple pie filling before baking. If you prefer a less sweet dessert, use a reduced-sugar cranberry sauce. Pecans can be substituted for walnuts, or you can omit the nuts altogether for a nut-free version. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra indulgent treat.
