- This recipe is a mixture of that from both sets of parents, and was partly based
- on the Betty Crocker cookbook. It has a top crumb crust, rather than a full
- crust.
-
- pastry for 9 inch one-crust pie
-
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup flour
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- dash of salt
- 8 cups thinly sliced pared tart apples (about 8 medium or 6 large)
-
- ingreg. for crumb crust:
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 3/4 c. flour
- 1/3 c. butter or margarine
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp nutmeg
- maybe a pinch of cloves and mace
-
- Heat oven to 450 degrees. Mix sugar, flour, cinnamon & salt in large bowl.
- Stir in apples. Put apple-mixture into pastry-lined pie plate. (You may want
- to press apples down firmly -- they shrink a LOT!!! You need a real mound of
- apples to end up with a decent pie).
- Mix sugar and flour for crumb crust in medium bowl.
- Cut in margarine; add spices. Put crumbs on top of pie -- you'll probably
- need to press them onto apples to keep them from falling off.
-
- Bake for 10 minutes; then lower to 350 and bake for 40 more. Check for
- doneness with fork.
