Apple Pie Recipe

Ingredients:

• 2 pie crusts - click here for pie crust recipe
• 1/2 to 3/4 cup of sugar
• 1 teaspoon of cinnamon
• 7 cups green apples, peeled and sliced
• 2 tablespoons butter

Heap the apples into a pastry-lined pie pan, and dot with butter.

Use a second pie crust to cover the top and cut the excess dough from the edges of the pie pan. Pinch the edges of the two pie crusts together using your thumb or a fork to create a decorative effect. For the top, you can also cut the dough in strips and create a criss-cross pattern.

Make slits in the top of the pie with a knife to release the steam. Cover the edges of the pie crust with strips of foil to prevent the edges from over browning.

Bake for 50 to 60 minutes. Remove from the oven, and allow the pie to cool before slicing.

This pie is delicious with a serving of real vanilla ice cream or real whipped cream.

Enjoy any time of the day!
