Freeeeesh Apple Pie!



This previous Saturday was "Apple and Wine day". We spend the day (in the fall) wine tasting and getting fresh produce (mostly apples). And it is a BLAST! 
I got some Honey crisp apples and oh-my-goodness they are the BEST apples I've ever had. I have never made a pie, so I decided what better time to try it out?!
And considering I don't bake....I confided in a recipe I found on....drum roll....PINTEREST [of course]. I searched through many versions until I found one that was not loaded with cream or caramel or too much sugar [to save calories]. Although I did add a little twist.

So here it is:


Ingredients

One Pie Crust 
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup all purpose flour
3/4 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp nutmeg
dash of salt
6 cups thinly sliced peeled apples
2 TB butter or margarine



Instructions are on the link above.

My addition: I chose to brush on some egg wash and sprinkle some cinnamon and sugar on top before baking. Also, she did not put the dough over the whole top like I did.
These are MY photos below:






Unfortunately the top was a little brown....especially where the cinnamon was....lesson learned! None the less it was SO good!

MmmMmmMmmmmmm :)
