    Best Ever Apricot Pie

    Recipe By :
    Serving Size : 6 Preparation Time :0:00
    Categories : Fruits, Pies

    Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
    -------- ------------ --------------------------------
    2 cups all-purpose flour
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    2/3 cups butter
    plus
    2 tablespoons butter
    1/2 cup ice cold water
    4 cups fresh apricot slices
    -- (up to 5 cups)
    3/4 cup sugar
    1/3 cup flour
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
    1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
    1 tablespoon butter -- (1 to 2)

    Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

    In food processor, combine flour and salt to blend. Add the butter and process just until the butter is cut into small lumps. Add the water and process just until the dough wants to form a ball. Divide in two parts, one slightly larger than the other. On a floured pastry cloth, roll out the larger piece and fit it into a glass pie dish.

    In large bowl, combine the apricots, sugar, flour, salt, and spices. Pile into the pie dish, dot with the butter, and then roll out the second part of dough, and place it over the top, sealing the edges with a little water between the layers. Brush with milk or cream and sprinkle on a little sugar.

    Place in microwave on high for 10 minutes. Then transfer to your hot oven and bake for 20-30 minutes, or until crust is browned. Allow to cool down about 1/2 hour before serving.
