Apple Pie III

Ingredients

• 2 9-inch pie crusts
• 6 cups peeled, cored and thinly sliced apples (about 6 medium apples)
• 3/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons butter

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
2. Place the bottom crust in your 9 inch pie pan. Trim the edges of the crust to fit the pan, and set aside.
3. In a large bowl, combine the apples, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and flour. Mix well.
4. Spoon the apple mixture into the pastry-lined pan. Dot with butter.
5. Cover with the top crust. Trim, seal and flute edges. Cut several small slits in the top to allow steam to escape.
6. Bake in the preheated oven for 40 to 50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown.
