Recipe
Prepare Pastry for Single Crust Pie. On a lightly floured surface, roll out
dough to a 12 inch circle. Transfer pastry to a 9 inch pie plate. Ease
pastry into pie plate, being careful not to stretch pastry. Trim; crimp edge
as desired. For Crumb Topping, stir together brown sugar, 1/2 cup all
purpose flour, and the oats. Using a pastry blender, cut in butter until the
topping mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Set aside. In a large mixing bowl
stir together the granulated sugar, 3 tablespoons flour, the cinnamon, and
salt. Add apple slices and gently toss until coated. Transfer apple mixture
to the pastry lined pie plate. Sprinkle Crumb Topping over apple mixture. To
prevent over browning, cover edge of pie with foil. Bake in a 375F oven for
25 minutes. Remove foil. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes more or until top is
golden. Remove from oven; sprinkle pie with pecans, then drizzle with
caramel topping. Cool on a wire rack. Makes 8 servings.
