Ingredients

  • 1 cup chopped pecans
  • 1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar
  • 1/3 cup butter, melted
  • 1 box of package refrigerated pie crusts (I prefer Pillsbury All Ready Pie Crust or you can make your own pie crust)
  • 1 teaspoon flour
  • 6 medium apples, sliced & peeled (I prefer Granny Smith and Braeburn apples)
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 2 tablespoons flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg

Instructions

  1. Heat oven to 375°F.
  2. Using a 9-inch pie plate, combine pecans, brown sugar and butter. Spread evenly over bottom of pan.
  3. Place bottom pie crust over pecan mixture in pan. Press crust down around sides of pan and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon flour.
  4. In large bowl, combine apples, sugar, flour, cinnamon and nutmeg. Mix lightly. Spoon into pie crust-lined plate.
  5. Top with second pie crust, and flute. Cut 4-5 slits in top crust, for steam to escape.
  6. Place pie plate on cookie sheet and bake for 40-50 minutes, or until crust is golden brown.
  7. Remove pie from oven, and cool on wire rack for 5 minutes.
  8. Place serving plate over pie and carefully invert hot pie. Remove pie plate. Some nuts may remain in pan, replace on pie with a knife.
