Martha’s Apple Pie Recipe

                            Back

Ingredients:
6-8 tart apples, peeled, cored, and thinly sliced (6 cups)
3/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons flour
dash ground nutmeg
pastry for 2 crust pie
2 tablespoons butter or margarine


     


Preparation:
If apples lack tartness, sprinkle with about 1 tablespoon lemon juice.  Combine sugars, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg and dash salt; mix with apples.  Line pie plate with pastry.  Fill with apple mixture; dot with butter.  Adjust top crust, cutting slits for escape of steam; seal.  Sprinkle with sugar and spray top with butter Pam.  Bake at 400 degrees for 50 minutes or until done.


Note:
This pie freezes well.  Sometimes if I have lots of apples, I’ll make several pies and freeze one or two so they’ll be ready when I need one.  Just place a paper plate upside down on top of pie.  Wrap well with foil and freeze.  Take from freezer and bake at 425 degrees for 1 hour.
