Caramel Apple Pecan Pie

Source: Jan Taylor

2 Pastry crusts 9-inch pies
4 Granny Smith apples, peeled and cored, thin sliced
1/2 cup pecans, chopped
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/4 pound caramels, coarsely chopped
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/4 cup milk
Milk for top
Sugar for top

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Ease 1 round of pastry into a 9-inch pan.

In a large bowl, toss together apples, pecans, sugar, caramels, flour and milk. Spoon mixture into pie shell.

Top with the remaining pastry. Fold the edge of the top pastry under the bottom pastry. Pinch together and flute the edge with a fork. Cut several slits in the top so the steam can escape during baking. Brush top with milk and sprinkle with sugar.

Bake until crust is golden brown, about 45 minutes.

Pie is best served slightly warm.
