This is a quick, easy to make and very tasty apple pie recipe. APPLE MIXTURE 4 Large apples 1/2 cup sugar 2 tblsp plain flour 1 tsp. ground cinnamon CRUST 1 stick of butter 1/2 cup sugar 1/2 cup plain all-purpose flour 1 cup chopped pecans 9 inch deep dish frozen pie shell Slice the four apples into bowl. Add 1/2 cup sugar, 2 tblsp of flour and 1 tsp cinnamon. Mix together and pour into pie shell. Melt the stick of butter and add to this the other half cup of sugar along with the half cup of flour. Blend this mixture till creamy then add the pecans. Spread over the apple mixture. Take two regular size brown grocery bags (double-bagged) and slide the pie in. Fold the bag in 1 1/2 inch folds about twice. You may want to tear along your closure, folding one tear down and the next up to insure the bag remains closed. Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees and cook pie for one hour. It may smell as if the bag is burning - but it never has with us or others. I'm not sure what the significance of the paper bag is - I assume it makes for the nice crust on top of the pie. -- Ron Thompson AT&T Information Systems Customer Programming ..akgua!cpsc53!rt Atlanta, Georgia Services Center (Opinions expressed are mine alone.)
