Day #6 of Thanksgiving Posts: Apple Pie

Mmm... I love pie. Especially when it's apple with a BIG dollop of whip cream! Yum!

Ingredients:

1pkg. refrigerated pie crust
6C peeled, cored and sliced apples
3/4C plus 1TBS sugar, divided
2TBS all-purpose flour
1 1/2tsp apple-pie spice
1/4tsp salt
2TBS butter, chilled and cut into small pieces
1 1/2TBS milk or cream

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 425. Fit 1 pie crust into a 9in pie dish.
2. Mix apples, 3/4C sugar, flour, apple pie spice and salt in large mixing bowl until apples are coated.
3. Turn apple mixture into pastry-lined pie dish; spread evenly. Scatter butter pieces over top of mixture.
4. Fit top crust over apple mixture. Wrap excess top crust under bottom crust around edges. Press edges together to seal; flute.
5. Brush top crust with milk. Make slits in top crust with knife to create steam vents. Sprinkle with remaining sugar. Bake pie until golden, 40-45minutes.

If you don't have apple pie spice, you can mix together:
1tsp cinnamon
1/4tsp ground nutmeg
1/8tsp ground allspice
and 1/8tsp ground cloves
