Preparation

Step 1

1. Set the butter out to soften a bit
2. Peel the apples and slice into thin pieces
3. Toss with the filling ingredients (flour, sugar, cinnamon, half & half)
4. Place in prepared pie crust
5. Place topping ingredients (softened butter, flour, sugar) in a bowl and knead with your (clean) hands until crumbly. (This is messy-your hands will be full of the topping but it's worth the finished product.)
6. Crumble the topping over the apple pie. It doesn't have to be perfect, just get it as evenly as possible.
7. Place pie in a brown paper grocery sack and close with a paper clip, staple or tape.
8. Bake at 400 degrees for 15 minutes then reduce to 350 for an additional 1 hour and 10 minutes.

Yumm!!
