AMERICAN
APPLE PIE RECIPE
Everyone in the family will
really enjoy American Apple Pie. It has a really wonderful
flavour to it. I always make two when I am doing my baking
as one is never enough for my family. The American Apple Pie
is great served with ice cream or lovely thick custard or
just with cream. If your family is like mine some like it
with cream and some with the ice cream but my favourite is
with the custard. But what ever way it really taste good,
even without the extras with it.
American
Apple Pie Ingredients
1/4 cup light brown sugar
1 x 9 inch pie crust
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 Tbs all purpose flour
1 egg beaten
1 tsp grated lemon zest
1 tsp granulated sugar
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
6 medium apples
1 cup raisins
American
Apple Pie Method
First thing to do is heat the
oven to 425 degrees. Prepare a 9 inch deep pie plate by spraying
it with vegetable cooking spray. Combine in a large bowl the
brown sugar, flour, granulated sugar, cinnamon, lemon zest,
and nutmeg and stir well till all the ingredients are combined.
Next peel and core the apples and slice them thinly. Put the
apples into the sugar mixture and coat them all over. Mix
in the raisins and then spoon the mixture into the prepared
pie plate.
Gently lift the pie crust and put it on top of the filling.
To trim the edges run a knife around the edge of the pie plate
and then using your finger just press the edge down on the
edge of the pie plate. Cut vents in the top of the pie crust
with the point of a knife. To glaze brush the pie crust with
the beaten egg and then sprinkle with the teaspoon of granulated
sugar. Bake the American Apple Pie for 30 to 40 minutes or
until it is golden brown. When it is cooked place it on a
wire rack till it has cooled down slightly and serve it warm.
Enjoy your freshly made American Apple Pie!
