For an even richer flavor, try using dark brown sugar instead of light brown sugar. A pinch of nutmeg added to the spice mixture will complement the cinnamon and cloves beautifully. If your pie crust edges are browning too quickly, cover them with foil or a pie shield during the last 15-20 minutes of baking. To avoid a soggy crust, you can blind bake the pie crust for 10 minutes before adding the filling.
