Masie's Applesauce Pie

Quick side note before you start.  When I use a store bought pie crust that comes in the pan this recipe is enough.  When I use my own pie pan, I have to double it. 




2 pie crusts.
16oz Applesauce
1/8 tsp nutmeg
1/8th tsp ground cloves
1/8 tso allspice
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 Cup of sugar
and a little lemon juice

about 1 Tablespoon of Flour for thickening (you can use the same amount of tapioca if you have that by the way)
about 2-3 tablespoons of butter cut very thinly.

Mix all the spices, sugar and flour together. 

Pour filling into pie shell.  Sprinkle lightly the lemon juice around the edges of the pie filling, and pat the butter around the outside as well.

Put 2nd pie crust on top and "pinch the edges" together then trim. Cut "vents" in the top. On this one I cut out holes with one of my fall cookie cutters to try it.  You can also do an egg wash over the top if you want. 

 Not sure how its going to work but when it comes out of the oven, we will see!!!!

Bake at 400 degrees for 35-40 minutes. 

 

Happy Thanksgiving!!!!!
