apple pie mash?

Post by hopkins21 »

Could you use and apple pie recipe and use it as a mash minus the alcohol, and just add yeast then distill it like you would a normal run. Would the flavor carry over enough to have a good taste, and would this work with other flavors like say cherry's or a lemonade or something...again im new so be gentle..lol
