A little sug sug, spices, you get the point.
Brown sugar and oat crumb topping (have you passed out yet?)
It's one of my all time favorite apple pie recipes. I'm not crazy about pie crust, so this is perfect because the crust is only on the bottom. It's good, folks. I've posted about it before, but had to do it again. Want the recipe? Here you go.
You're welcome.
****************************************************************
Apple Pie
- 1 Pastry crust for a deep dish 9" pie (you can make or purchase ready-made)
- 1/2 C Sugar
- 1 Tbsp Flour
- 1 1/2 tsp Apple Pie Spice OR Cinnamon (or allspice works great, too)
- 1/8 tsp salt
- 6-8 Cups Apples, sliced thinly
Crumb Topping:
- 1 C Brown Sugar
- 1/2 C rolled oats
- 1/2 C Flour
- 1/2 C Butter
Stir together brown sugar, flour & oats. Cut in butter with a pastry blender until topping resembles coarse crumbs. Set aside. In a large bowl, mix together sugar, flour, spice & salt. Add apples & toss to coat. Put into pie shell. Add all of the crumb mixture on top of the apples (until all the apples are covered with the mixture). You will need to press it onto the apples to make it stay. You can cover the edges of the pie with aluminum foil for the first 25 minutes to prevent burning, but I usually avoid this step and the pie turns out fine. Bake at 375 for 50-55 minutes. Allow the pie to cool for 10-15 minutes & drizzle the top with your favorite caramel. Enjoy!
