Apple Crumb Pie
You didn't think I'd leave you hanging without something delicious to fill your crust with did you?? I meant to post this the day after I posted my crust recipe...but you know how that goes. This is one of the many glorious pies famous in the Omi (and now the Atkins) household. Usually for my birthday this would be my request in place of a birthday cake. It's a huge crowd pleaser and, best of all, it's easy! Serve it ala mode for dessert, and I even like it cold for breakfast! Is that weird...? To each her own, it's good no matter how you serve it!
Ingredients
1 unbaked pie crust
8 granny smith apples, peeled, cored, sliced (these can be thin or thick slices)
1 cup sugar (divided in half)
1 Tbsp cinnamon
3/4 cup flour
1/2 cup butter (1 stick, cold)
Directions
Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Shape the pie crust into a pie plate. In a gallon sized zip-loc bag, pour in 1/2 cup sugar and cinnamon. Here's the fun part...add the apples to the bag. Close tightly (very tightly) and toss the apples, coating them evenly. Mound the apples into the pie plate.

hi! will this work with other types of apples? my sister-and-law and I (perhaps accompanied by our husbands) are going to pick apples in an orchard this weekend and we wanted to come back and make pie with the apples we pick...
Even though the friendship bracelet/string is gone, i still feel the connection, its unexplainable.

Hi Elisa!! Haha I was just telling some people about that friendship string, they thought it was awesome!
And yes, you can use any types of apples. I just prefer Granny Smith because they are tart.
Let me know how it goes!!
