Brown Bag French Apple Pie
Categories: Desserts, Pies & past
Yield: 1 Pie

--------------------------------FOR THE PIE--------------------------------
1 1/2 c All-Purpose Flour
1/2 ts Salt
1/2 c Shortening
5 tb ICE Water
8 c Apples [peeled & sliced]
1/4 c Granulated Sugar
2 tb All-Purpose Flour
1/2 ts Nutmeg, Ground
2 tb Lemon Juice
1 ts Cinnamon, Ground

------------------------------FOR THE TOPPING------------------------------
1/2 c Granulated Sugar
1/2 c All-Purpose Flour
1/3 c Butter
1 lg Paper Bag
Vanilla Ice Cream

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.

To make the pie: 1) Combine the first measure of flour, salt and shortening
using a pastry blender until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs, then stir
in the water a little at a time, using a fork, and form the dough into a
ball.

2) Roll out the pastry dough on a lightly floured board. Roll to an 11" or
12" diameter and fit into a 9" pie pan fluting the edges.

3) Combine the sugar, the second measure of flour, the cinnamon, the nutmeg
and the lemon juice in a large bowl then toss the apple slices in the
mixture and arrange them in the pie crust.

To make the topping: 4) Combine the sugar and flour in a bowl and cut in the
butter using a pastry cutter then sprinkle the topping over the apple
filling.

5) Place the pie in the LARGE paper bag and place the paper bag on a baking
sheet and loosely fold the open end of the bag under. Bake until the apples
are tender (50-60 minutes).

6) Carefully remove the pie from the bag ~ CAUTION: WATCH OUT FOR THE STEAM
COMING OUT OF THE BAG!

7) Serve warm with generous portions of vanilla ice cream.

 

I've made this pie, but used a store-bought 9 inch pie shell, and nmade the
apple filling and topping. It's really good!
