Taffy Apple Pie image

First you make a traditional apple pie filling and then things get more interesting. Half the apple mixture is spooned into a deep-dish pie shell and layered with caramels and a taffy mixture. And then more apples, caramels and taffy go in. And then it's baked and served warm.

Time 40m

Yield 1 PIE, 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 (9 inch) double crust pie crusts
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup butter, melted
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
5 cups apples, sliced thin
2/3 cup white sugar
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon lemon juice
20 caramels, halved
2 tablespoons milk

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
  • To Make Taffy:
  • In a small bowl combine brown sugar, melted butter or margarine, and 1/3 cup flour.
  • Mix well and set aside.
  • To Make Apple Filling:
  • Place apples in a large bowl.
  • Add white sugar, 3 tablespoons flour, cinnamon, and lemon juice.
  • Toss until all ingredients are mixed well and apples are thoroughly coated.
  • Spoon half of apple filling into pastry-lined deep-dish pan.
  • Top with half of caramels and half of taffy mixture.
  • Repeat process with remaining apple filling, caramels and taffy mixture.
  • Place top pastry over filling and seal well.
  • This is very important, if edges are not sealed, caramel will leak out all over.
  • Cut steam vents and brush top crust with milk or light cream.
