HONEY APPLE PIE

Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 1 hour
Course Dessert

Ingredients
  

  • 4 braeburn apples you can also use Fuji, Granny Smith or Pink Lady
  • 1 pk of frozen pie crusts I prefer Wholly Organic Whole Wheat Pie Shells—healthier and you can’t tell the difference!
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground ginger
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon nutmeg
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla flavor
  • ¼ cup honey
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 tablespoon flour
  • ½ teaspoon lemon juice

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  • Thaw pie crust.
  • Peel, core, and slice apples.
  • Add apples and all other ingredients (except butter) to a bowl and mix well.
  • Pour the coated apples into the pie crust.
  • Cut the tablespoon of butter into small pieces and sprinkle over the apples.
  • Place the 2nd pie crust on top of the bottom crust and slowly remove it from the pie pan.
  • Press the edge of the top crust down to seal with the bottom crust.
  • Cut several 1 inch slits into the top crust
  • Brush the crust with water (or you can brush with an egg if you like).
  • Place the pan on top of a cookie sheet and place in the oven.  (The cookie sheet helps the bottom crust bake evenly.)
  • Bake for 50-60 minutes or until crust is golden brown.
