Apple Pie by Grandma Ople

Go Granny, go!

1 recipe pastry for a 9" double crust pie

1/2 cup unsalted butter
3 Tbl. all-purpose flour
1/4 cup water
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
8 Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored and sliced

  1. Preheat oven to 425*F (220*C). Melt the butter in a saucepan. Stir in flour to form a paste. Add water, white sugar and brown sugar, and bring to a boil. Reduce temperature and let simmer.
  2. Place the bottom crust in your pan. Fill with apples, mounded slightly. Cover with a lattice work of crust. Gently pour the sugar and butter liquid over the crust. Pour slowly so that it does not run off.
  3. Bake 15 minutes in the preheated oven. Reduce the temp. to 350*F (175*C). Continue baking for 35-45 minutes, until apples are soft.
This is exceedingly good! We made it when the 2006 Winter Olympics were on...
Who needs wedding cake when you can have wedding apple pie! *ravenous noises*
