From a cookbook called Great Food From Mom's Diner , this pie couldn't taste more like Grandma baked it than, well, if she HAD baked it! I made this for Thanksgiving last year and the first bite just amazed me. It almost tasted a bit TOO homemade-(is there such a thing?) Since I'm not a big pie person and probably favor the more modern, trendier desserts, I haven't really made it again. But if you love pie with extremely old-fashioned flavor and VERY simple to put together, try this one out and impress the family! A scoop of vanilla ice cream on top would be just grand. Ingredients:
4 eggs |
1 cup sugar |
2 tablespoons flour |
1 teaspoon cinnamon |
1/8 teaspoon salt |
2 tablespoons butter, melted |
1/2 cup light corn syrup |
1/2 cup honey |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1 cup oats |
2 granny smith apples, peeled,cored,and chopped |
1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips |
1 unbaked 9-inch deep dish pie pastry |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°F.
2. In a large bowl, beat eggs until frothy.
3. In a small bowl, mix together flour, cinnamon, and salt.
4. Stir into eggs until blended.
5. Add butter, corn syrup, honey, and vanilla and blend well.
6. Fold in oatmeal, apples, and chocolate chips.
7. Pour into pie crust and bake for 1 hour and 10 minutes or until pie is set.
8. Let cool before slicing.
9. Top with a scoop of good quality vanilla ice cream if desired.
