Apple Pie

Early in the fall I made apple butter and apple sauce from some yummy golden Delicious apples I got at a local orchard. I froze the applesauce into tubes using a Seal-a-meal and have been sending it in my kids lunches. They have eaten it so well that today I am making more applesauce. Because I have all these apples I will make a special treat for the family tonight, (because after all this mess they will be eating leftovers for supper) homemade apple pie.

I always start with a frozen, store bought pie shell, fill with peeled, cored, chopped apples. Sprinkle with 1/2 cup brown sugar and 1 t cinnamon. In a bowl, mix 1 cup oats, 1 stick melted butter, 1 cup brown sugar, 1 t cinnamon, until well blended, spread on top of apples in pie shell. Bake at 350 for 45 minutes. (set the pie on a cookie sheet because it usually runs over) Serve with ice cream. YUMMY!
