Easy Apple Pie

Fall is officially here. Leaves are falling off trees, the people of the United States of America are waiting to vote on the lesser of the two evils and friends are getting together to enjoy a nice glass of Sparkling Cider.

Ohhh, and then there's apple pie...






Yummy glass of apple cider :)



Ingredients:

6 cups of cubed granny smith apples (green ones) (remove skin-be careful!)
1 box of Pie Crust (comes with 2 - top & bottom)
2/3 tsp Cinnamon (I added a little extra)
3/4 cup Sugar
2 tbsp Flour
1/8 tsp Nutmeg
1/4 tsp Salt



Step One: Heat oven to 425°F. Place 1 pie crust in an ungreased or greased 9-inch glass pie plate. Press firmly against side and bottom.



Step Two: In a large bowl, gently mix filling ingredients; spoon into crust-lined pie plate. Top with second crust. Wrap excess top crust under bottom crust edge, pressing edges together to seal; flute. Cut slits or shapes in several places in top crust.



Step Three: Bake 40 to 45 minutes or until apples are tender and crust is golden brown. 


Let cool...


Who am I kidding, dig in while it's warm....even if it's burns the roof of your mouth a little. That will go away eventually ;).

Oh and it also smells delicious ... it's like a natural air freshener for when the landlord happens to stop by ;)


Tips on making a special edge on a pie crust.


I just simply pinched my fingers together around the pie and cut (lightly) into the pie in 5 slits (almost in a star shape).


Leftovers are great, just re-heat and add vanilla ice cream!
