My sister created this recipe for a family celebration, but it's great anytime, relates Joni Karcher, Geneva, Nebraska. With the tempting taste of a home-baked pie, this finger food pairs warm spiced apples with cute cutout shapes from a prepared crust. Ingredients:
cinnamon-sugar crisps: |
pastry for double-crust pie (9 inches) |
2 tablespoons sugar |
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
apple dip: |
6 medium tart apples, peeled and coarsely chopped |
3/4 cup sugar |
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1/4 cup butter |
1/4 cup king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
1 cup cold water |
Directions:
1. For cinnamon-sugar crisps, on a lightly floured surface, roll pastry to 1/8-in. thickness. Combine sugar and cinnamon; sprinkle over pastry. Cut with floured 2-1/2-in. Halloween-shaped cookie cutters. Place 1 in. apart on ungreased baking sheets. Bake at 425° for 4-6 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove to wire racks to cool.
2. Meanwhile, in a large skillet, saute apples, sugar and cinnamon in butter until apples are tender. Combine flour and cold water until smooth; stir into skillet. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Spoon into a serving dish. Serve warm with cinnamon-sugar crisps. Yield: 3 cups dip (2 to 3 dozen crisps).
