    Deep Dish Apple Pie


    Source of Recipe


    unknown

    List of Ingredients




    2 ready-made frozen pie pastry sheets
    2 Tbs lemon juice
    6 cups peeled, sliced apples
    2/3 cup sugar, plus 1 tablespoon
    1/8 tsp salt
    1/4 tsp ground allspice
    1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
    1/4 tsp ground cloves
    3 Tbs all-purpose flour
    2 Tbs butter, cut into pieces

    Recipe



    1 Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Fit one sheet of pie pastry into a deep-dish pie plate. To prevent tearing the pastry, roll sheet around a rolling pin; unroll over pie plate.
    2 Combine lemon juice and apples in a large bowl. Add 2/3 cup sugar, salt, allspice, cinnamon, cloves, and flour; toss well.
    3 Spread apple mixture over pie crust in dish. Dot with butter. Arrange second pastry sheet over apples. Press to lightly seal edges. Trim overhanging crust.
    4 Make 4 slits in top crust; sprinkle with remaining sugar. Bake for 20 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 degrees. Bake until filling bubbles, about 30 minutes longer. Let pie cool completely before slicing.
    5 VARIATION: For a classic fall dessert, add 1/2 cup golden raisins and 1/3 cup chopped pecans during step 2.
