Number Of Ingredients 11

1 package(s) refrigerated pie crusts
1/2 cup(s) sugar
2 tablespoon(s) all purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon(s) cinnamon, ground
1/4 teaspoon(s) salt
5 cup(s) thinly sliced and peeled apples (about 5 medium)
1 1/2 cup(s) shredded white cheddar cheese
1/4 cup(s) maple syrup
1 tablespoon(s) whipping cream (in carton)
2 tablespoon(s) maple syrup
1/4 cup(s) toasted chopped pecans

Steps:

In a large bowl combine sugar, flour, cinnamon, and salt. Add apples; toss gently to coat. Add cheese and the 1/4 cup maple syrup; toss gently to combine.
Transfer filling to pastry-lined 9" pie pan. Drizzle with the whipping cream. Add the top crust and crimp edges. Cover edges with foil to prevent over-browning.
Bake in a pre-heated 375-degree oven for 40 minutes. Remove foil. Bake 20 minutes longer or until apples are tender and pastry is golden brown.
Transfer pie to a wire rack. Brush top with the 2 Tbsp. maple syrup and sprinkle with pecans. Cool for 1 hour. Serve slightly warm
