Homemade Apple Pie Recipes

INGREDIENTS

• 2 2/3 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 cup old fashioned rolled oats
• 2/3 cup sugar
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 3/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
• 1 egg white
• 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
• 7 large tart apples — peeled and sliced
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 3/4 cup apple juice
• 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch

PREPARATION – CRUST

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
2. Spray 9-inch pie pan with cooking
   spray.
3. In large bowl, mix flour, oats, 2/3 cup sugar, cinnamon, and baking
   soda.
4. In medium bowl, mix 3/4 cup applesauce, egg white and vanilla. Add
   applesauce mixture to flour mixture and stir until well blended- it may be
   easier to use your hands. If mixture seems too dry to roll out, stir in up
   to 1/4 cup more applesauce.
5. On lightly floured surface, using lightly floured roling pin, roll out
   half of oat mixture to form 12-inch circle. Reserve remaining mixture for
   top of pie. If necessary, press dough into pan with your fingers. Bake
   until set, 10 to 13 minutes.

PREPARATION – FILLING

1. In a medium sized saucepan, combine apples, sugar, 1/2 cup apple juice,
   cinnamon and vanilla. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until
   apples are tender, 5 to 10 minutes.
2. In cup, mix cornstarch and remaining 1/4 cup apple juice.  Add to hot apple mixture and cook, stirring constantly,
   until thickened, about 4 minutes. Remove from heat.

PUT IT ALL TOGETHER AND BAKE

1. Spoon apple mixture into baked crust.
2. On well-floured surface, using floured rolling pin, roll out remaining
   oat mixture to form 11-inch circle. Pierce with fork. Lightly fold in half,
   place over filling and unfold. Fold top edge under; crimp edge. Set pie on
   baking sheet to catch drips.
3. Bake until crust is firm, 15 to 20 minutes.

Serve warm or chilled.
