SNAPPY APPLE PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
• Thaw crust as directed on package.
• Place each crust on a foil-lined baking sheet. (I use the nonstick aluminum foil).
• Combine the apples, 3/4 cup granulated sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger and allspice in large bowl.
• Mix until well combined.
• Spoon 1/2 of the apple mixture on each pie crust up to 2 inches of edges.
• Fold 2-inch edge of crust over apples, pleating or folding crust as needed.
• Combine 1 t sugar and 1 t cinnamon.
• Brush crust with half-and-half.
• Sprinkle edges of crust evenly with the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
• Note: Those new cinnamon-sugar grinders, made by McCormick, work great for sprinkling sugar on the pie crust edges.
• Bake each pie for 20 minutes or until appels are tender.
• Cover crust with foil to avoid excessive browning of crust.
• Cool slightly before serving.
