  • 1 tbs milk
  • 3 tbs softened butter
  • 1/4 tsp vanilla extract

  • 8 peeled and sliced tart apples I use medium-sized macintosh apples
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 2 tbs flour

Instructions

  • In a bowl, combine the walnuts, brown sugar, egg, milk, 1 tbs of the butter, vanilla and 1/4 tsp of the lemon juice.
  • Line a 9" pie plate with one of the pie crusts and trim it so its even with the edge of the plate.
  • Spread nut mixture on top of the bottom pie crust.
  • In a large bowl, toss apples with remaining lemon juice.
  • Combine the sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt and toss with apples.
  • Spoon apples over nut mixture.
  • Cube remaining butter and spread out over apples.
  • Place the other pie crust on top and use fork to seal edges. Cut "vents" on top and brush it with some milk.
  • Bake at 375 for 50-60 minutes or until golden brown. (Mine usually goes for the full hour)
  • Let sit for about 30 minutes before serving.
