A favorite among my family and friends. The apples go great with the shortbread crust. Very easy and delicious! Serve with whipped cream. Ingredients:
2 cups all-purpose flour |
1/2 cup white sugar |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
3/4 cup chilled butter, diced |
2 egg yolks, beaten |
1 1/4 pounds golden delicious apple - peeled, cored and cut into 1/4 inch slices |
1/4 cup light brown sugar, packed |
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour |
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C.)
2. Sift four, 1/2 cup sugar and salt into a large bowl. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Fold in egg yolks (mixture will be crumbly). Remove 1/4 of mixture, and set aside. Press remainder onto bottom and sides an 8 inch tart shell or pie pan.
3. In a large bowl, combine apples, brown sugar, 1 tablespoon flour, cinnamon and nutmeg. Place apples into crust, and sprinkle reserved crumb mixture evenly over top.
4. Place pie on a baking sheet, and bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and continue baking 20 minutes, or until top is golden brown and filling is bubbling.
