This pie is delicious and a wonderful dessert to make when you are craving some apple pie but don't have the time to make a crust. However, please don't think it's some sort of second-rate apple pie in a pinch. It's so tasty I make it even when I *do* have the time for an old fashioned apple pie. It's in a class all by itself. :) Oh my gravy it's good!
5-6 medium apples, sliced
OR use your apple slices from your food storage (I buy mine in bulk from the LDS Home Storage Center, everyone is welcome - find one near you here)
I use 2.5 - 3 cups dried apples, rehydrate for 5 minutes in 4 cups boiling water - drain excess
1 T sugar
1 T cinnamon
3/4 cup melted butter
1 cup sugar
1 cup flour
1 egg
1/2 cup chopped nuts
small splash of vanilla
Fill pie plate 2/3 full of apples. Sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar. In a medium bowl, stir the rest of the ingredients until combined. Pour over apples. Bake at 350 degrees F for 45 minutes or until lightly browned.
Food Storage: I *always* make this with my dehydrated apples so everything in the recipe comes from items I have on hand. Remember you can substitute shortening for butter or margarine, and use your powdered eggs and then all the ingredients are shelf stable. A fresh tasting dessert without much effort and no runs to the store for ingredients!
