4 cups fresh apples, peeled and sliced
1¼ cups sugar
3 tablespoons flour
½ teaspoon cinnamon
¼ teaspoon nutmeg
¼ teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons butter
Top and bottom pie crust to fit a 10-inch pie pan
In a large mixing bowl, mix dry ingredients. Toss the apples in the dry ingredients, and layer in a pie pan that already has a bottom crust. Sprinkle the remainder of the sugar mixture over the apples, and dot the apples with slices of the butter. Next, cover the pie with a top crust, and cut a couple of slits in the crust. Sprinkle about a teaspoon of white sugar on top of the crust for a browning effect. Bake for 45 to 50 minutes in a 350° oven, or until the top is golden.
