I have had this recipe for years.I have changed the type of apples and made one crust and topped with cool whip instead of whipped cream. Arrange the apples in a circle, it shows through the glaze and place the cool whip in the center. Ingredients:
7 granny smith apples, peeled, cored, wedges or 7 cups tart apples |
3/4 cup white sugar |
1 1/2 cups unsweetened pineapple juice |
3 tablespoons cornstarch |
1 tablespoon margarine |
1/2 teaspoon vanilla |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1 pie crust, baked, cooled |
whipped cream or cool whip |
Directions:
1. In large pot add 1 1/4 cup pineapple juice and sugar. Bring to a low boil, add apples.
2. Simmer about 4 minutes, apples should be tender but not soft.
3. With slotted spoon take out apples and drain in colandar, have a dish underneath to catch liquid.
4. In small bowl, add 1/4 cup pineapple juice and cornstarch. Stir to dissolve.
5. Add to hot pineapple mixture, stirring until thickened. Turn the heat down when thickening. Should be clear and not milky.
6. Take off the heat. Stir in margarine vanilla and salt. Cool about 30 minutes, do not stir. Take any juice drippings from apples and stir into mixture.
7. Pour half of the mixture in the pie shell covering bottom.
8. Arrange apples in the circle around the shell. Spoon other half over the applies, smooth with the back of a spoon. Chill.Before serving top with whipped cream or cool whip in the center.
9. Optional Serving: Place 8 slices of Kiwi fruit on top of pie for 8 servings.
