1 frozen deep-dish piecrust *
1/2 cup(s) chopped pecans
1/4 cup(s) all-purpose flour
1/4 cup(s) (packed) brown sugar
2 tablespoon(s) butter
1 large egg white
1/4 cup(s) granulated white sugar
2 tablespoon(s) cornstarch
1/2 teaspoon(s) ground cinnamon
3 pound(s) Granny Smith, Golden Delicious, and/or
...Gala apples, each cored, peeled, and cut into 8 wedges
1 tablespoon(s) fresh lemon juice
Heat oven to 375 degrees F.
While crust is thawing at room temperature for
15 minutes, mix pecans, flour, and brown sugar in
bowl. Work in butter with fingertips until mixture
resembles coarse crumbs. Set aside.
Prick bottom and sides of crust with fork.
Bake 12 to 15 minutes or until lightly golden.
Immediately brush bottom and sides of hot crust
with light coating of egg white.
Reset oven to 425 degrees F.
Meanwhile, in large bowl, combine granulated sugar,
cornstarch, and cinnamon.
Toss in apples and lemon juice.
Cover with waxed paper and microwave on High for
12 minutes, stirring halfway through.
Spoon filling into crust.
Sprinkle pecan topping over filling.
Bake pie 10 to 12 minutes or until topping is golden.
Cool on wire rack.
Serve with vanilla ice cream if desired.
Peg's notes:
*For a true homemade presentation, remove the crust from
its foil pan and place in your own 9-inch pie plate: Gently fold
back foil around edge of frozen crust and pull slightly on the
crust to remove from foil. Transfer to pie plate and thaw as
directed. With fingertips, press lightly on thawed dough to
mold into shape of your pie plate.
I made this pie tonight (9/26/07) . It`s very easy, quick
to make and tastes sooo.. good. I used 1/2 jonathan and
1/2 gala apples. it made for a sweet but a little tart pie.
