Yummy Crunchy Caramel Apple Pie My grandmother gave me this recipe after she made it for me during a visit about 5 years ago. I like to use Granny Smith apples, leave the peel on, and cut slices that are a little thick, but do whatever you wish! This is a very good pie and I'm always asked to make it! Thanks, Grandma!! (Very good served with vanilla ice cream!) by Wendy N 1ΒΌ hours 15 min prep 1 "9 inch pie" For Pie pastry for single-crust pie 1/2 cup sugar 3 tablespoons flour 1 teaspoon cinnamon 1/8 teaspoon salt 6 cups thinly sliced peeled apples Crumb Topping 1 cup packed brown sugar 1/2 cup flour 1/2 cup quick-cooking rolled oats 1/2 cup butter Final Topping 1/2 cup chopped pecans 1/4 cup caramel ice cream topping Prepare pastry for single-crust pie, being careful not to stretch dough too much. Place in pie plate and trim and crimp the edge. In a large mixing bowl, stir together the sugar, flour, cinnamon, and salt. Add apple slices and gently toss until they are coated well. Transfer mixture to pie. FOR CRUMB TOPPING: Stir together brown sugar, flour, and oats. Using a pastry blender, cut in the butter until topping resembles coarse crumbs. Sprinkle over apple mixture in pie. To prevent over-browning while baking, cover edge of pie with foil. Bake at 375* for 25 minutes. Remove foil and bake 25-30 minutes more, or until top is golden.. Remove from oven and drizzle top with caramel topping, then sprinkle with pecans. Cool on wire rack and serve! ~~~~~~~~~~ Rhonda G in Missouri Owner of http://groups.yahoo.com/group/a_place_for_chatting_and_friends/ Owner of http://groups.yahoo.com/group/awesomeswapsandmore/?yguid=301586139 Owner of http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Rhondas_Recipe_Exchange/?yguid=301586139 All are looking for new members!!! ____________________________________________________________________________________ Be a better Heartthrob.
