Brown Bag Apple Pie

This pie is in one word - AMAZING! It's SO good. It pairs wonderfully with Vanilla Bean ice cream. :) 

Preheat oven to 425 degrees

Brown Bag Apple Pie 

Filling:

2.5 lbs of Granny Smith Apples

1/2 cup sugar

2 tbs. of Flour

1/2 tsp. Cinnamon *I add 1 tbs. (I LOVE Cinnamon) 

2 tbs. Lemon Juice 

Core, peel and slice apples. In big bowl, mix all above ingredients together. Should coat the apples all over. Put in deep dish pie shell. (In freezer section at the grocery store by the whip cream.) 

Topping:

1 cup sugar

1 cup flour

1 cup butter 

Cut all together. If you have a food processor that's the best way, or you will have to get the hand cutter thingy. :) Form an outer shell on top with topping ingredients. Place pie in brown paper bag and secure with paper clips. Place on cookie sheet. Bake at 425 degrees for 1 hour. 

When removing from oven don't touch the paper clips with your hands. Ouch! Also, it make steam or smell a little funny while cooking. This is the brown paper sack. Make sure when you place in oven, it's not touching any burners, or hot spots...etc. 

Allow pie to cool for a few minutes. Cut yourself some pie, put in a bowl, top with Vanilla Bean Ice cream and ENJOY! :) 

Try it and let me know if you like it!

**By the picture it doesn't look like anything really special...but it's the INSIDE that's the best! :)
