Brown Bag Baked Dutch Apple Pie
((Printable Recipe))
Ingredients:
1 pie crust (my no roll pie crust can be found here)
6 cups peeled and sliced apples (I like a mixture of granny smith and macintosh.)
1/2 cup white sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar
3 tablespoons four
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 tablespoon butter
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
a pinch of salt
Topping:
1/2 cup flour
1/4 cup white sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar
pinch of salt
1/2 cup cold butter
Directions:
1. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F. Shape the crust into the pie plate.
2. In a large bowl, toss together the apples, lemon juice, flour, sugars, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt. Pour into the crust. Cut the 1/2 tablespoon of butter into small pieces and dot over the top of the apples.
3. With a pastry knife or a food processor (short pulses in a food processor), cut the butter into the topping ingredients until the butter is about the size of small peas. Carefully top this over the apples.
4. Place the apple pie in a brown bag, rolling up the bottom and stapling shut. Place it on a cookie sheet pan and bake for 1 hour.
5. Allow it to cool in the bag then tear open. Serve warm or cold.
