Ingredients:

• About 5 apples
• a few TB lemon juice
• 1/2 c. butter, chilled
• 3/4 c. flour
• 3/4 c. sugar
• 1/4 c. packed brown sugar
• 1/2 tsp. cinnamon
• 1/4 tsp. nutmeg
• pinch of salt

Directions:

Preheat oven to 375º

Grease a 9” pie pan and set aside.

Peel apples and slice thin. Place in a bowl, sprinkle with lemon juice and mix to evenly coat.

In a bowl or food processor combine the flour, sugars, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt. Slice the butter into pieces and cut into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. I like to do this in the food processor to save time, but a fork works just as well.

Pour the apples into the pie plate and cover with the flour/butter mixture. Bake for about 45 minutes until bubbly. I like to then turn it up to broil for about 2 minutes to make the crust good and crunchy. Let it cool for about a half hour, make some coffee and enjoy.
