A favorite among my family and friends. The apples go great with the shortbread crust. Very easy and delicious! Serve with whipped cream.

Time 1h5m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups all-purpose flour
½ cup white sugar
¼ teaspoon salt
¾ cup chilled butter, diced
2 egg yolks, beaten
1 ¼ pounds Golden Delicious apple - peeled, cored and cut into 1/4 inch slices
¼ cup light brown sugar, packed
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon ground nutmeg

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C.)
  • Sift four, 1/2 cup sugar and salt into a large bowl. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Fold in egg yolks (mixture will be crumbly). Remove 1/4 of mixture, and set aside. Press remainder onto bottom and sides an 8 inch tart shell or pie pan.
  • In a large bowl, combine apples, brown sugar, 1 tablespoon flour, cinnamon and nutmeg. Place apples into crust, and sprinkle reserved crumb mixture evenly over top.
  • Place pie on a baking sheet, and bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and continue baking 20 minutes, or until top is golden brown and filling is bubbling.
