I poured a can of sweetened condensed milk over my raw sliced apples before baking my pie. 45 minutes later, this is what happened

Pie
Sweetened condensed milk is high in sugar and milk solids, which caramelize beautifully under heat. During baking, the sugars in the milk undergo Maillard reactions, creating complex flavors and a golden-brown hue. The milk’s viscosity helps bind the filling, preventing it from becoming too runny, while the milk proteins add a creamy texture that enhances the pie’s mouthfeel.
