Has anyone tried baking this without a paper bag or parchment like a normal pie? What happens? Just curious. Although I haven't tried baking this without a paper bag or parchment, I would think you'll definitely need to lower the oven temperature and perhaps adjust total cooking time. The paper bag creates steam which allows the apples to cook, but also stay moist. Baking at 425 in that steamy environment works great, but as I said, you'll probably need to slightly lower the temperature to avoid burning the streusel and allowing the apples to cook through. ~Mel
