Dutch Apple Pie

Another treat from the archives. Dutch apple pie, also known as appeltaart or appelgebak:

• 1 keebler graham cracker pie crust


• 1 large egg yolk, beaten


• 5 1/2 cups sliced, cored, peeled cooking apples


• 1 tbsp lemon juice


• 1/2 cup sugar


• 1/4 cup light brown sugar


• 3 tbsp flour


• 1/4 tsp salt


• 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon


• 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg


• 3/4 cup flour


• 1/4 cup sugar


• 1/4 cup light brown sugar


• 1/3 cup butter @ room temperature

Preheat oven to 375. Brush bottom & sides of crust evenly with egg yolk, bake on baking sheet until light brown - about 5 minutes. Remove crust from oven.

Combine sliced apples, lemon juice, 1/2 cup sugar, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 3 tbsp flour, salt cinnamon & nutmeg. Mix well & spoon into crust.

Mix remaining flour, sugar, brown sugar & butter with a fork or pastry blender (who the hell has a pastry blender??) until crumbly.

Sprinkle topping mixture evenly over apples.

Bake on baking sheet until topping is golden and filling is bubbling - about 50 minutes.

Cool on wire rack.
