apple pie with carmel topping


freshly sliced, uncooked apple slices are nice and tender baked with a hint of caramel drizzled throughout

ingredients:
· 1 double pie crust recipe
· 5 granny smith apples
· carmel topping:
· ¼ cup Earth Balance
· 1 ½ Tbsp flour
· ¼ cup cane sugar
· ¼ cup packed brown sugar
· 2 ½ Tbsp water

method:

Preheat oven to 425 ◦

Peel & core the apples, then slice thinly and set aside

Prepare pie crust recipe. Place bottom layer in oiled pie dish and layer in all the apples.

For the top crust layer, roll out dough out and slice into strips. Layer strips in a basket weave pattern over the apples.

To make the carmel topping, combine all ingredients in a saucepan and over low – medium heat bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer 5 minutes.
