Time 50m

Yield 1 pie, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

5 lbs apples
1/2 cup unsweetened orange juice
1 tablespoon lemon juice (or if you're like me, use 1 cap full)
2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
1 cup water
1 tablespoon cornstarch

Steps:

  • Clean, Peel and Dice some of the apples (2-3) and add to a 2 quart saucepan. Add orange juice, lemon juice and cinnamon. Allow to "stew" on medium heat for 5 minutes. This will make the apples soft and sweeten naturally in their juices.
  • Clean, peel and slice the rest of the apples and put the lid on with the heat on low for an additional 5 minutes.
  • Turn off the heat and mix the corn starch and water in a separate cup. Add to apples and stir. This will prevent the apple mix from being too thin and gloopy during the cutting process.
  • Add to the bottom crust of your favourate pie crust (be sure to perforate it with a fork first!), add filling and the top layer of dough.
  • Since the filling is still hot, the cooking time will be cut down; bake at 450 degrees for 25-30 minutes.
  • This pie is easily prepared and frozen to be cooked later.
