Ingredients
- Serving Size : 6
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons flour
- 1 tablespoon butter or margarine
- 3/4 cup sugar (1 c for tart apples)
- 4 McIntosh apples
- 4 Cortland apples
Method
- Line bottom of pie plate with thin crust, let it drape over edge of plate.
- Slice apples into plate until it is HEAPED over top.
- Mix the cinnamon and flour into the sugar and pour this over the apple slices.
- Dot the top with pieces of the butter.
- Now cut around the plate to rid the excess crust.
- Roll out top crust and “smear” center (6 inches or so) with Crisco.
- Make 5 or 6 slits near middle.
- Sprinkle with flour.
- Fold and put on pie.
- This makes it easier to place on pie.
- Unfold, then cut off to within 1 1/2 ” any access and fold under the other crust making finger “folds” to seal all around.
- Now walk to sink and holding pie in one hand, run it quickly under cold water to PARTIALLY rinse off flour.
- This is what makes it “flaky”.
- Cook at 350 for about 1 hour until golden brown and a sharp knife inserted feels NO firm apples.
