ApplePie

This is the Apple Crumb Pie ReciPe? that SarahFletcher uses. She got it from some cookbook her mom has and has altered it a bit. It is yummy :)

Cooking materials:

• pie pan
• mixing bowl
• knife (for cutting apples)
• pastry blender (a fork or a knife can work if it must)

Ingredients:

• For filling
  • 1 (9in) PieCrust
  • 2/3 cup sugar
  • 2 tbs flour
  • ~1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • one Sarah of ground cloves (if I had to guess I would say a rounded 1/2 tsp)
  • 6-8 tart apples pared (ie peeled) , cored and sliced (6 cups)
• For topping
  • 1/2 cup flour
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup butter

Instructions:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F
• Mix the sugar, flour and cinnamon for the filling
• Stir into sliced apples
• Dump apple mixture into pie crust (try to make it evenish)
• Mix the sugar and flour for the topping
• Cut the butter into the sugar/flour mixture
  • For those who do not know baking terms, this means that you mix the butter into the flour/sugar mixture with the butter(still solid, it is generally easier if it is cold) so that you get a bunch of floury buttery sugary crumbles
• Sprinkle the topping evenly over the apples
• Bake for 45-50 minutes (until the apples are cooked)
  • If it is browning too quickly cover the edge with tin foil

• Mmm, I like pie.
