A flavorful twist on the classic apple pie. Sweet apples drenched in maple, vanilla and cinnamon without over-doing it. Ingredients:
2 pounds apples, peeled, thinly sliced |
4 teaspoons fresh lemon juice |
1 1/2 cups water |
1/2 cup maple syrup |
2 teaspoons vanilla extract |
3/4 cup white sugar |
2/3 cup cornstarch |
1 dash salt |
3 tablespoons ground cinnamon |
1 dash ground nutmeg |
Directions:
1. Toss apple slices with lemon juice and set aside. Combine water, maple syrup, vanilla, sugar, cornstarch, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg in a large saucepan, stirring until well mixed.
2. Bring maple syrup mixture to a simmer over medium-high heat, stirring constantly until the sugar dissolves, and the mixture thickens and turns clear. Fold in apple slices and return to a simmer. Reduce heat to low and cook for 5 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to stand for 15 minutes before spooning into a prepared pie crust or freezing.
