"This is pretty easy to make and I just love the crunchy topping! Wonderful with vanilla ice cream!"
Ingredients
1 single-crust pie crust
1/2 cup sugar
3 Tbsp. flour
1 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/8 tsp. salt
6 cups thinly sliced, peeled cooking apples
Topping
1 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup flour
1/2 cup quick-cooking rolled oats
1/2 cup butter or margarine
1/2 cup chopped pecans
1/4 cup caramel ice-cream topping
Directions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Prepare you favorite pie crust, or thaw a frozen crust.
For crumb topping, stir together brown sugar, flour and rolled oats. Using a pastry blender (fork or even your hands) cut in butter or margarine until the topping mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, stir together sugar, flour, cinnamon, and salt. Add apple slices and gently toss until coated. Transfer apple mixture to the pie crust. Sprinkle crumb topping over apple mixture.
To prevent overbrowning, cover edge of pie with foil. Bake in 375 degree oven for 25 minutes. Remove foil. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes more or until top is golden brown. Remove from oven. Sprinkle pie with pecans, then drizzle with caramel topping. Makes 8 servings.
