Recipe For Apple Pie Offers A Scrumptious Surprise
Author: Stacey Moore
The apple is a symbol of health, of wisdom and of simplicity. These are just a few reasons people say "as American as Mom and apple pie."
Apple Crumb Pie is a tribute to American ingenuity. Firm, fresh, juicy apple slices bake in a sweet and creamy suspense-a corn syrup and cinnamon-sauce made thick with corn starch. They're topped with just the right amount of rich, buttery "crumblies" that add a sweet, tasty crunch.
When fresh apples are juiciest, Apple Crumb Pie can be a bit saucy, but most apple lovers will be delighted at the prospect of extra juices. It is delicious by itself without accompaniments or it can be served warm, with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and a cup of piping hot coffee.
This delicious crunchy recipe has been tested in the kitchens of Karo Corn Syrup.
Apple Crumb Pie
Makes Eight Servings
Prep time: 20 minutes
Bake time: 60 minutes
Ingredients
Pie:
1/4 cup sugar
1 tablespoon Argo Corn Starch
11/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons butter, melted
1/2 cup Karo Light or Dark corn syrup
6 cups thinly sliced, peeled cooking apples (about 2 pounds)
1 unbaked deep-dish pie crust
Crumb Topping:
3/4 cup flour
2/3 cup sugar
6 tablespoons butter or margarine
Directions
Preheat oven to 375' F.
Combine sugar, corn starch, cinnamon, salt, butter and corn syrup in a large bowl. Add apples and stir to coat. Pour into pie crust. For crumb topping, combine flour and sugar. Cut in butter with a pastry blender or 2 knives until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Sprinkle topping evenly over pie. To avoid boil-overs in the oven, place pie plate on a baking sheet. Bake for 1 hour, until crust is brown and apples are tender.
Recipe Note: If crust browns too quickly, cover edges with foil halfway through baking.
When many American home bakers think of a pie using corn syrup, their first thoughts are most often of pecan pie, but corn syrup can also add flavor to dozens of other tempting, scrumptious pie recipes, such as fruit pies, custard pies, chiffon pies and nut pies.
