Rolling down the highway
I've been using this recipe for 40 years to make apple pie. It's so easy and so good. Just thought I'd share.

Apple Pie

Ingredients

• 6 apples, peeled and pared (I used Granny Smith)
• ½ to 2/3 cup sugar
• ¼ teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons plain flour
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1 recipe plain pastry
• 1 tablespoon butter

Instructions
Pare and slice apples. Sift dry ingredients together and mix with apples. Line piepan with pastry and fill with apple mixture, dot with butter and cover with top crust. Bake in very hot oven (450 degrees) 15 minutes; reduce temperature to 350 degrees and bake 45 minutes longer.
 
Thanks for yours ... I put it in my file! :love



I have a good recipe for apples too... but you just use a 9 X 13 pan - no pastry required. The topping is almost like oatmeal cookies. Kids love it.


Apple Oatmeal Crinkle


Mix together in a baking dish:

4 to 8 cups of sliced apples to fill dish

Dash of cinnamon

1 cup sugar

¼ tsp salt

3 to 4 TBL flour…I’m lazy I use 1/3 cup more or less


Mix and spread over apples:

½ cup brown sugar

½ cup flour

½ cup oatmeal

½ cup butter or Crisco

(For 8 cups of apples I double the above mixture)


Bake at 350 degrees 1 hour until apples are tender (I look for bubbling of syrup through crust.)
 
I make an apple crisp for the family. They love it. It is sweet mostly from the apples and not a syrupy sweet. Approx 190 calories per serving. 8 servings (Depends on the frozen yogurt you use. :) )

Ingredients:

4 cups peeled, cored, sliced granny smith apples (3-4 medium apples)
1 Tbsp granulated sugar
2 tsp lemon juice
3/4 cup rolled oats
1/4 cup flour
2 Tbsp brown sugar
2 Tbsp melted butter
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp salt
1 cup low-fat frozen vanilla yogurt

Preparation:

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F.

2. Place the apples evenly in the bottom of a 11x7 inch baking dish coated with cooking spray.

3. To complete the crisp, in a medium-sized bowl, combine the remaining ingredients and stir until the mixture resembles of course meal. Top the apples evenly with the oat mixture.

4. Bake the crisp at 350°F for 30 minutes.

5. Top each apple crisp serving with 2 tablespoons of frozen vanilla yogurt.

:thumbsup I would love to have an apple tree! I bet you make a lot of apple recipes.

I have applesauce that I canned. I froze a few bags of peeled and sliced apples in Ziploc bags to make pies later. I have a dehydrator that we dry them then freeze them... the kids often eat them before I can get them frozen! :rant

I have made a bunch of apple crisp ...that's my boys favorite... they help themselves to it for breakfast, lunch, dessert. I haven't made a pie yet! :dunno

We have two trees.

This year the tree that ripens first had some fungus problem. The apples had a tiny spot that would grow and rot the apple if let go. We sprayed a few times - so I don't know, next year we need to spray more often. I also need to cut out the water sprouts this year… it will help the air flow

I hope the second tree does better, so far it is good. Both trees had fewer apples than last year- I think the weird cool, then hot weather last winter.
