we have an Arkansas Black apple tree that produces ALOT of apples... so I use them for my pies.. Nice and crisp and sweet..
Arkansas Blacks ( enough peeled, cored and sliced to fit 9inch pie pan)
1 cup of sugar
1 tablespoon of butter
1 teaspoon of Cinnamon
1 teaspoon of nutmeg
1/8 cup of corn starch
mix all together except the butter.. till slices are coated.. pour in pie crust.. cut butter in small pieced and drop randomly on apples.. cover with top of pie crust.. pinch edges shut & make slits in crust for steam ventilation..sprinkle pie crust with a lil bit of sugar crystals... Cover edges with foil to prevent from over browning.. bake at 375 for 15min then turn down oven to 350 and cook for another 30 min. remove foil and bake another 15 min... Allow to cool for at least 20 min before slicing..
YUM YUM...
