The first apple pie I ever made; easy and simple directions. And real apples, no canned apple pie filling! I made this for dessert when company was over and I figured if I screwed up, I could always pass it off as apple cobbler with ice cream served over it, but it came out great, looked and tasted like a real apple pie! Ingredients:
2 cups flour |
1 cup brown sugar, packed |
3/4 cup butter or 3/4 cup margarine, melted |
1/2 cup quick-cooking oats |
2/3 cup sugar |
3 tablespoons cornstarch |
1 1/4 cups water |
3 cups tart apples, peeled and sliced (i use granny smith) |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
Directions:
1. Combine flour, brown sugar, butter/margarine and oats; set aside 1 cup for the topping.
2. Press remaining crumb mixture into an ungreased 9 inch pie plate; set aside.
3. For the pie filling: combine sugar, cornstarch and water in a saucepan until smooth, bring to a boil.
4. Cook and stir for 1 minute or until thickened.
5. Remove from heat and stir in apples and vanilla.
6. Pour filling mixture into crust and top with the 1 cup crumb mixture.
7. Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes or until crust is golden brown.
