Ingredients

  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 2 pounds tart baking apples, peeled, cored and sliced (about 6 cups)

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F.
  2. Roll half of pastry into 12-inch circle; use to line 9-inch pie plate.
  3. Combine sugar, corn starch, cinnamon and nutmeg in a large bowl. Add apples and lemon juice; toss to coat. Spoon into pie crust.
  4. Roll remaining pastry to 12-inch circle; fit loosely over filling. Trim overhang to 1-inch. Fold edges under; flute edge. Cut several 1/4-inch wide vents in top crust for steam to escape.
