Apple Pie (Grandma Foley Style)

This recipe takes me back to my childhood Thanksgiving dinners, and most years it ends up on our Thanksgiving table as well. --Mark

Ingredients:

6-8 tart apples, peeled and sliced
¾ cup sugar
2 T flour
½ tsp. cinnamon
Dash nutmeg
2 T butter
2 soft pie crusts, favorite recipe

Instructions:

Toss apples, sugar, flour, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Fill pie crust. Dot with butter. Cover with second pie crust. Cut slits for steam to escape. Crimp crusts together. Optional: Brush with milk and sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar. Bake at 400 ˚F for 50 minutes.

Notes:

We use this pie crust recipe for our crusts, alWe usually place the pie pan on top of a cookie sheet since we always over pack the crust with apple filling and it oozes everywhere. If you invite me over to eat this pie, you’ll need to make 2.
