ITS A FIRST!


After apple picking yesterday and having so many apples in the house. I decided to use them this afternoon. So I found Aunt Bev's Famous Apple Pie....I sure as hell have no idea who Aunt Bev is but her recipe looked like something I could follow. I'm not Martha's niece so it was questionable!

The Recipe: Aunt Bev's Famous Apple Pie

Ingredients:
7 tart apples, peeled & cored
1 Cup white sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
2 tablespoons all purpose flour
1/2 teaspoons ground nutmeg
salt to taste
2 recipe unbaked pie shells
1 tablespoons butter

Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400f
2. Cut apples into 1/4" slices
3. In mixing bowl, combine sugar, cinnamon, flour, nutmeg and salt. Mix throughly. Pour the spice mixture over apples and stir until the apples are coated
4. Line the crust in a 9" deep pie pan. Place apples in the pie crust. Dot the pie filling evenly with butter. Fit the top crust over the apples. Press the crust down gently & cut 3-4 slits in the top of the crust to allow steam to escape while the pie is bakign
5. Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 50 minutes or until the crust is golden brown. Check pie after 3o minutes. If crust is brown reduce heat to 350f to allow apples to cook without the crust burning.
6. Let pie cool. Serve warm or cold. With ice cream or without.


I'm so proud!
