Time 1h15m

Yield 8 slices, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

3/4 cup sugar
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon ground allspice (optional)
4 -5 cups apples, thinly peeled and sliced
2 pie crusts, deep-dish, according to package directions

Steps:

  • In a mixing bowl combine sugar, flour, cinnamon, and allspice.
  • Add apples, toss to coat fruit.
  • Transfer apples to a frozen deep-dish pie crust.
  • Place second pie pastry atop apples.
  • Seal edges together by crimping with a fork.
  • Cover edges of pie with foil.
  • Place on baking sheet and bake in a 375ยบ oven for 25 minutes.
  • Remove foil and bake for 30 to 35 minutes more or until crust is golden and filling is bubbly.
  • Serve warm or cool.
  • For a prettier top, may brush the unbaked top with milk, water or melted margarine or butter and then sprinkle lightly with sugar.
  • I like to use heart cookie cutters to make a design with four hearts to allow steam to vent and then brush top melted butter and dust with cinnamon.
  • May store at room temperature up to one day, refrigerate for longer storage.
