SUPER GROOVY APPLE CRISP PIE

Source of Recipe

Suz


List of Ingredients

3 apples (Braeburns are what I used)
1 cup applesauce
5 teaspoons butter
2 cups of flour
1 cup of cinnamon
1 cup of cinnamon graham crackers broken up into small pieces
1/8 cup of water
1 Tbs of brown sugar




Recipe

Preheat the oven to 350F.

Wash, peel, core, and chop the apples into small pieces (somewhere between slicing and dicing -- just make sure the apple pieces are small and not too thick)

Combine the flour with 4 teaspoons of butter. Add approximately 1/2 cup of the applesauce to the mixture. Add additional flour as needed to give the dough a dry enough consistency to press into a pie pan, then press it into a pie pan.

Place the apple pieces into the crust, and spoon the remaining applesauce over it.

Mix up the broken graham cracker bits with 1 tablespoon of brown sugar, and 1 teaspoon of margerine.

Sprinkle this mixture on top of the apples. Sprinkle 1/8 cup of water over the top.

Bake for approximately 40 minutes. The apples will still have some kick to them (not too mushy), and the crust stays a bit gooey. It won't make the cover of Better Homes and Gardens, but it tastes great! Serves: 8.
