Recipe
Make an unbaked 9” pastry shell, using packaged pie crust mix or your own recipe. Pare, core, & quarter apples, then halve each quarter crosswise to make chunks, about 4 cups; place in a large bowl.
Make filling; Combine ½ C. sugar, 2T. flour & cinnamon in cup; sprinkle over apples; toss to coat well; spoon into pastry shell; drizzle with lemon juice
Combine ½ C. sugar & ½ C. flour for topping in a small bowl; cut in butter; sprinkle over apples to cover top. Slide pie into a heavy brown paper bag large enough to cover pie loosely (grocery bag); fold open end over twice & fasten with paper clips (I fold once & use staples); place on large cookie sheet for easy handling. Bake at 425º 1 hr. (apples will be tender & top bubbly & golden) Serve plain or with cheese.
