Topsy Turvey Apple Pie....

Posted in Recipes

Okay...here's recipe number one! 

     I used to buy Mrs. Smith's appple pies...why go through the trouble of making homemade when it's cheaper and great out of the box!?!  That was until my father-in-law gave me this recipe.  It is super easy and looks fantastic!  Martha Stewart good!  Enjoy!

 

Glaze and Crust                                        Filling

1/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar              2/3 cup granulated sugar

1 Tablespoon butter (melted)                        2 Tablespoon all purpose flour

1 Tablespoon light corn syrup                      1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

1/4 cup pecan halves                                    4 c sliced, peeled apples

1 package Pilsbury Refrigerated crusts             (4 medium apples)

 

Directions

     In a 9 in glass pie pan, combine brown sugar, butter (or margarine) and corn syrup.  Mix weel and spread evenly in the bottom of the pan.  Make a pretty design with pecan halves (I usually outline the bottom of the pan and make a star in the middle).  Then place the bottom pie crust (prepared as directed on package) over mixture.  Preheat oven to 425.

     In a small bowl, combine granulated sugar, flour and cinnamon, mix well.  Arrange half the apples slices in crust lined pan.  Sprinkle with half the sugar mixture.  Repeat with the remaining apple slices and sugar mixture.  Top with second crust, seal edge and flute.  Cut slits in several places in crust.

     Place pie pan on a sheet of foil on an oven rack.  Bake at 425 for 8 minutes.  Reduce heat to 325 and bake for 35-45 minutes or until apples are tender.

     Take out of oven and IMMEDIATELY run a knife around edge of pie to loosen.  Carefully invert pie onto plate.  Serve warm!...icart
