List of Ingredients

12 medium-size apples -- peeled, cored and thinly sliced
1/4 cup coarsely chopped walnuts
2 cups sugar
2 tsp. cinnamon
1/8 tsp. nutmeg
2 tsp. lemon juice
Pastry for 2 double crust 9" pies
4 Tbs. butter

Glaze:
3 Tbs. lemon juice
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
1/2 cup chopped walnuts


Recipe

Combine first 6 ingredients, mixing well. Set aside. Roll out half the pastry, to fit an 11x15-inch rimmed baking sheet. Place pastry on sheet and cover with apple filling to within 1/2" of edge. Dot with butter. Roll out remaining pastry and place over apples. Turn edges of bottom pastry over top and flute or pinch edges to seal; prick top with fork or knife in several places. Bake in 350 degree F. oven for 1 hour, or until apples are fork tender and crust is golden brown. Meanwhile, in a bowl, mix the 3 Tbs. lemon juice with powdered sugar. Spread icing over hot pastry; sprinkle with the 1/2 cup of walnuts, which have been finely chopped. Let cool; cut into 24 bars.
