So named because I won a blue ribbon at the county fair with this recipe. I use Homemade Pie Crust for the double pie crust. However, I especially love it with Oatmeal Crumb Topping for Pies. Prep time depends on if you are peeling & slicing the apples by hand or not.
Ingredients:
8 cups peeled & cored thinly sliced apples
1 tablespoon lemon juice
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
2 tablespoons flour
1 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch
1/8 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons butter
1 (9 inch) double crust pie crusts, unbaked
Directions:
1. Coat apple slices with lemon juice.
2. Combine sugar, spices, flour, cornstarch and salt in a large zip-loc bag.
3. Add apples and shake bag until thoroughly coated.
4. Immediately, put coated apples into prepared pie crust.
5. Dot with butter.
6. Cover with top crust.
7. Crimp edges to seal and cut vent holes into crust.
8. Brush with milk and sprinkle with cinnamon sugar.
9. Bake at 425°F for 15 minutes, reduce temperature to 350°F and continue baking for 45 minutes or until golden brown.
