Original Recipe Yield 8 servings
 

Ingredients

  • 7 cups thinly sliced peeled baking apples
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 6 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 Pastry for double-crust pie (9 inches)
  • 3 tablespoons apple cider
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted
  • PRALINE TOPPING:
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon light cream
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider
  • 1/2 cup chopped pecans

Directions

  1. In a bowl, mix apples, sugar, flour, cinnamon and nutmeg. Line pie plate with bottom crust; brush well with apple cider. Add apple mixture; pour any remaining cider over all. Drizzle with butter. Top with second crust; flute edges to seal. Cut slits in top. Bake at 350 degrees F for 50 minutes.
  2. Meanwhile, for topping, melt butter in a small saucepan. Add brown sugar, cream and cider; slowly bring to a full rolling boil, stirring occasionally. Remove from the heat and stir in pecans.
  3. Remove pie from oven and place on a baking sheet; pour topping over pie. Return to the oven for 5-10 minutes or until topping bubbles. Cool at least 1 hour before serving.
