Apple Pie



INGREDIENTS

 1 recipe for your favorite pie crust - doubled
1/2 cup butter
3 Tbsp. Flour
1/4 cup water
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
5 cups peeled & sliced baking apples


Roll out 1/2 the crust and fit into a greased pie pan. 

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. In a saucepan, melt the butter and add the flour. Add the water and sugars and bring to a boil. Reduce temperature to low to keep the mixture hot.


 Mound the apples into the pie crust. Roll out the remaining dough and slice into 1/2" strips. Weave over the apples to form a lattice crust: How To Weave A Lattice Crust.


Carefully & evenly pour the caramel sauce over the crust, letting it sink in between the apple slices.


Bake at 425 degrees for 15 minutes. Turn oven down to 350 degrees F and bake for 35-45 minutes, or until crust is nicely browned and a knife inserted into the apples does not make them crunch.

Easter Dinner

Amidst the droves of Robin's Egg Whoppers and limited edition Lindt truffles, we managed to squeeze in some actual real live human foodstuffs. Here is the cavalcade of my Easter cooking crusade.
