    Source of Recipe


    From Pillsbury

    List of Ingredients




    Crust:

    1 refrigerated pie crust (from 15-ounce box), softened as directed on box

    Streusel:

    3/4 cup brown sugar, packed

    1/2 cup all-purpose flour

    1/2 cup old-fashioned oats

    3/4 teaspoon apple pie spice

    1/3 cup butter or margarine

    Apple Layer:

    3 cups thinly sliced peeled apples (3 medium)

    1/3 cup granulated sugar

    3 tablespoons all-purpose flour

    1 teaspoon apple pie spice

    Cream Cheese Layer:

    8 ounces cream cheese, softened

    1/4 cup granulated sugar

    1 egg

    1/4 teaspoon vanilla

    Recipe




    Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Make pie crust as directed on box for a 1-crust baked shell, using 9-inch glass pie pan, except do not prick crust. Bake 9 to 11 minutes or until light brown. If crust puffs in center, flatten gently with the back of a wooden spoon. Remove crust from oven and reduce temperature to 350 degrees. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, stir together the streusel ingredients, except the butter. With a pastry blender or fork, cut in butter until mixture looks like coarse crumbs. Set aside. In a large bowl, gently mix apple layer ingredients; set aside. In a small bowl, beat cream cheese and 1/4 cup granulated sugar on low speed until well blended. Add egg and vanilla; beat well. Spread in crust-lined pan. Spoon apple mixture evenly over cream cheese layer; sprinkle with streusel.

    Bake 50 to 60 minutes or until apples are tender and streusel is golden brown. If necessary, cover pie loosely with foil during the last 10 to 15 minutes of baking to prevent over-browning. Cool at least 1 hour before serving. Store covered in refrigerator. Makes 8 servings.
