Jan's Apple Pie

Source: Jan Taylor

2 pounds Macintosh Apples (or Granny Smith)
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons butter
Additional sugar for sprinkling
Pastry for double crust pie

Peel and slice apples. Toss with sugars, cinnamon, and flour. Set aside.

Roll crust to make slightly larger to fit 10-inch glass pie pan. Fit bottom crust in pie pan. Turn in apple mixture and dot with butter. Put crust on top and crimp edges of crust together.

Wet hands with water and dampen top of pie. Sprinkle with additional sugar. Puncture top of pie with fork so pie will vent.

Bake for 15 minutes at 450 degrees F; reduce heat to 350 degrees F and continue baking for about 45 minutes more, until crust is golden brown.

Serve warm.

ENJOY!
