Recipe Introduction
My grandmother gave me this recipe after she made it for me during a visit about 5 years ago. I like to use Granny Smith apples, leave the peel on, and cut slices that are a little thick, but do whatever you wish! This is a very good pie and I'm always asked to make it! Thanks, Grandma!! (Very good served with vanilla ice cream!)

1/2 cup sugar

1/2 cup quick-cooking rolled oats
