Caramel Apple Pie

When I make pies for the holidays, this one is always requested and it's always the first one to disappear. This is the one I made for the Young Women activity on Wednesday.

Caramel Apple Pie

• Pastry for a single crust pie
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 3 Tablespoons flour
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1/8 teaspoon salt
• 6 cups peeled, thinly sliced apples (I like to use Gala or Golden Delicious)

Crumb Topping:

• 1 cup packed brown sugar
• 1/2 cup flour
• 1/2 cup quick-cooking oats
• 1/2 cup butter 
• 1/4 cup caramel ice cream topping

In a large bowl, stir together the sugar, 3 Tablespoons flour, cinnamon and salt. Add the apple slices and gently toss until coated. Transfer apple mixture to a pastry-lined pie pan.

For Crumb Topping: Stir together brown sugar, flour and oats. Using a pastry blender, cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Sprinkle topping over apples.

To prevent over-browning, when you put the pie in the oven, lay a piece of foil on top of the pie. Bake at 375 for 25 minutes. Remove foil and bake another 25-30 minutes, until top is golden. Remove from oven and drizzle with caramel ice cream topping. This is delicious served warm with ice cream. Makes a 9" pie.
