    List of Ingredients




    Prep time: 14 mins.
    Cooling time: 24-27 mins.

    1 lemon
    1 lb. tart apples (2-3 apples)peeled, cored & thinly sliced
    1/2 cup granulated sugar (reserve 2 t. for crust)
    1 T flour
    3/4 t. apple pie spice or 1/2 t. ground cinnamon
    1 refrigerated pie crust (half of a 15 oz. package)
    1 T. unsalted butter, cut into six pieces

    Recipe



    Preheat oven to 450. Grate 1 t. lemon peel & squeeze 2 t. of the juice from the lemon. Set aside. Toss apples with sugar, flour, spice, lemon peel & juice.

    Place the pie crust on a rimless baking sheet lightly dusted w/ flour. Dust a rolling pin w/ flour & roll the pastry to a rough 13" circle. Heap apples on pastry, leaving a 2" border all around. Scatter butter on the fruit. Fold pastry border back over the apples to make a uneven rustic edge of about 1 1/2", leaving the slices in the center exposed. Sprinkle reserved sugar over the pastry border.

    Bake 12 mins, then reduce temperature to 425 & bake until apples are softened & bubble & pastry is golden brown, 12-15 mins. longer. Serve warm or at room temperature on the day of baking.
