While visiting a Wisconsin apple orchard bakery, I tried this tempting treat. At home, I put together this recipe. My family thinks it tastes better than the one used by the bakery. As it bakes, the enticing aroma fills my kitchen, and friends and family linger waiting for a sample. -Nancy Preussner, Delhi, Iowa Ingredients:
pastry for a single-crust pie |
2/3 cup sugar |
3 tablespoons king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
4 medium baking apples, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch slices |
topping: |
1/2 cup king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
1/3 cup packed brown sugar |
1/3 cup rolled oats |
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1/4 cup butter, softened |
1/4 to 1/2 cup caramel ice cream topping or caramel apple dip |
vanilla ice cream, optional |
Directions:
1. Roll pastry to fit a 12-in. pizza pan; fold under or flute the edges. Combine sugar, flour and cinnamon in a bowl. Add apples and toss. Arrange the apples in a single layer in a circular pattern to completely cover pastry. Combine the first five topping ingredients; sprinkle over apples.
2. Bake at 350° for 35-40 minutes or until apples are tender. Remove from the oven and immediately drizzle with caramel topping or dip. Serve warm with ice cream if desired. Yield: 12 servings.
