A good source of thiamin, niacin and iron. This is a really unique apple pie!
The brown sugar makes it taste like a caramel apple! So yummy!
Ingredients
5 cups thinly sliced pared tart apples
(about 4 medium apples)
1 cup brown sugar
1/4 c water
1Tbsp lemon juice
1/4 c flour
2 Tbsp sugar
3/4 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla
3 Tbsp butter
Pastry for a 9″ two-crust pie
Directions
Mix apple slices, brown sugar, water and lemon juice in saucepan. Cover and cook over medium heat just until apples are tender, about 5 minutes.
Mix flour, sugar and salt. Stir into the apple mixture. Cook, stirring constantly, until syrup thickens. This will be about 2 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in vanilla and butter.
Heat oven to 425 degrees. Prepare pastry. Turn apple mixture into pastry-lined pie plate. Cover with top crust that has had slits cut into it; seal and flute edges. Cover edge with 2-3″ strip of aluminum foil to prevent excessive browning. I use a ring that is specifically designed for this purpose but this works too.
Bake 40-45 minutes or until crust is golden brown.
