6/17/2017. My mom had saved this recipe from the Northern Watch, a local newspaper. I was intrigued at the idea of baking a pie in an oven in a paper bag! Ok, to be fair, this is NOT Low FODMAP! Apples are high in fructose and there is flour in the crust so this is one of those I am including but I have not adjusted it for IBS/SIBO-but my family will love it!
I did a very simplified version of the recipe that my mother had:
1 prepared pie crust
1 can apple pie filling-I added some ginger and allspice to jazz it up a bit!
Topping: 1/2 cup sugar, 1/2 cup softened butter, 1/2 cup flour
Press pie crust into 9″ pie pan. Pour pie filling into pan. Make filling by combining all 3 ingredients, cutting butter into dry ingredients. This will make a sticky dough. Put small dabs of dough all over top of apple pie filling to cover pie.
Slide pie into a heavy brown paper bag. Fold over ends and staple or clip bag. Place on a cookie sheet and bake in oven for 1 hour. Remove from bag carefully. Cool and serve with hard cheddar cheese (has almost no lactose) and or ice cream.
