Apple Pie Pastry
The following recipe is for apple pie, but can be
used for other fruit as well. The amount of sugar you use may depend on the
tartness of the fruit and your own taste. - 5 cups of
peeled sliced apples - 3/4 - 1 cup
sugar - 1 teaspoon cinnamon
Mix the apples, sugar and cinnamon together and
place in a pastry lined pie plate. Cover with the top crust, press the edges of
the top and bottom crusts together, and "flute" so that the edges are away from
the plate. (This is so the edges do not burn.) Slash the top crust with a knife
to allow steam to escape. Bake at 450F for 10 minutes, then reduce the heat to
350F and bake for an additional 45 minutes. |
