Paper Bag Apple Pie 3




Source of Recipe


Ezine


List of Ingredients




3 to 4 large baking apples (about 2 1/2 pounds or 7 cup)s, peeled, cored and cut into chunks
1 C granulated sugar (divided)
2 T + 1/2 C flour, divided
1/2 t ground nutmeg
1 (9- to 11-inch) unbaked pastry shell
2 T lemon juice
1/2 C (1 stick) butter or margarine, room temperature
1 large, unused brown paper bag


Recipe



Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.

Toss apples with 1/2 C of the sugar, 2 T of the flour and the nutmeg. Spoon into pastry shell and drizzle with lemon juice. To make topping, combine remaining 1/2 C sugar, 1/2 C remaining flour and the butter. Cut with two knives until mixture is combined and crumbly. Sprinkle over apples, covering entire top.
Slide pie into heavy brown paper bag large enough to cover pie loosely. Fold open end over twice and staple to fasten securely.
Place on large cookie sheet. Do not let paper bag come into contact with sides of stove.
Bake for 1 hour.
Remove from oven and split bag open. Remove pie and cool on wire rack.
Serve with Cheddar cheese (my fave) or ice cream.

Makes about 8 servings.
