Apple Pie

When I say 'Grandma's favorite dessert', what do you think? Her making Lemon Meringue? Fudge? Chocolate chip cookies? Mine are of me making something for her :)

Every Thanksgiving she asks me if I'm making this pie, and of course my response each time is "Only if you make your Picadillo!" One day I'll post that too. Man... I'm drooling already.

Thanksgiving come now!!!

Ingredients:

8-10 Various apples peeled and thinly sliced (best are Gala, Fuji, Granny Smith)

1 pkg of Pillsbury crust

1/2 cold butter, cubed

2tbsp vanilla

1-2 tbsp cornstarch

2tsp Cinnamon

2tsp nutmeg

1tsp salt

1/2 cup brown sugar

1tbsp lemon juice

1. Set the crust out to thaw a bit- until it becomes pliable. Place one in a grease pie pan and save the second for the top.
   
   
2. Combine everything in a huge bowl. Adjust flavoring as you like, you can't really go wrong. Let sit and marinate for a bit, then pour into pie tin- every last drop and slice.
   
3. Take the second crust and cut some hole in it. You can slice it, cookie cut and decorate with the cut-outs, whatever you like as long as it has some air to breath. To help the edges come together, press down with a fork- making sure no juices will escape. Oh! and if you want a glossy finish melt a bit of butter and brush on the top.
   
4. Turn the oven on to 350 and get out some foil. Wrap the edges of the pie in it so that they won't burn. Nice little trick if you didn't know about it already. Bake for an hour or until the neighbors come asking what's for dinner.
   
5. Take out and let set for 10 mins- just so you won't burn your mouth when eating it. Take it to a friends house, serve A la Mode, have it for breakfast the next day, just enjoy!
