Did you know you can freeze your apple pie , so all that you have to do on Thanksgiving is pull it out and bake it? Pretty awesome, I think. This saves hassle around Thanksgiving.
Ingredients :
8 McIntosh Apples, peeled and sliced.
4 Tbsp sugar
1 Tbsp flour
2 Tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp nutmeg
Dash of ginger
Dash of cloves
Pie crust for a top and bottom
Directions:
1. In a pie plate , place bottom crust. I just use Jiffy pie crust mix, it has a good flavor and is cheaper than Pillsbury.
2. In a large bowl put in apples, sugar, flour, and spices, coat evenly.
3. Place apples into pie , top with remaining pie crust, and seal edges
Now if you choose to freeze the pie, wrap the pie in 4 layers of syran wrap , to ensure that the pie crust doesn't absorb any odors from the freezer. It should be good for a few months.
When you bake the pie, unwrap it and put it in a preheated oven, if you let it thaw the crust will get soggy.
Bake at 350° for 45 minutes until the crust is golden brown.
