Crunchy Caramel Apple Pie

材料

1 pastry crust for a deep-dish pie 9-inch (homemade or store-bought)

½ cup sugar

3 Tbsp all-purpose flour

1 tsp ground cinnamon

Pinch of salt

6 cup granny smith apples (sliced thin and peeled)

½ cup chopped pecans

¼ cup melted caramel (not ice cream topping)

Ingredients for Crumb Topping:

1 cup packed brown sugar

½ cup all-purpose flour

½ cup quick cooking rolled oats

½ cup butter

手順

Directions for Crumb Topping:

1. Stir together brown sugar, flour, and rolled oats.

2. Cut in 1/2 cup butter until topping is like coarse crumbs. Set aside.

Directions:

1. In a large mixing bowl, stir together the sugar, flour, cinnamon and salt.

2. Add apple slices and gently toss until coated.

3. Transfer the apple mixture to the pie shell (I remove the store-bought pie shell from the aluminum pie plate and transfer it to a 9-inch pie plate of my own, but you do not have to.)

4. Sprinkle crumb topping over the apple mixture.

5. Place pie on a cookie sheet so the drippings don't drop into your oven.

6. Cover the edges of the pie with aluminum foil.

7. Bake in a preheated oven at 375 for 25 minutes.

8. Remove from the oven. Sprinkle the pie with chopped pecans, then drizzle with caramel on top.

9. Cool on a wire rack and enjoy warm or at room temperature.
