Grandma's Apple Pie
Incredibly delicious hot with vanilla ice cream or, an old Yankee touch, a slice of cheddar cheese.
Ingredients:
- 6 cups peeled, sliced apples (Idared, Golden Delicious, Jonathan, Granny Smith)
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 2 tablespoons butter
- pastry for double-crust 9-inch pie
Preparation:
- Preheat oven to 450°F.
- Combine apples and lemon juice in mixing bowl. Combine sugar, brown sugar, flour, cinnamon and nutmeg; mix well. Pour sugar mixture over apples, and stir to coat. Spoon filling into pastry-lined 9-inch pie pan. Dot with butter.
- Transfer top pastry to top of pie, trimming off excess. Fold edges under to seal, and flute rim. Cut slits, decorative or not, into top pastry for steam to escape.
- Bake in preheated 450°F oven for 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 350°F, and bake for 45 minutes.
