Old Fashioned Apple Pie

Ingredientswrks4me_terry_tested-11

  • 4-8 apples 20 oz (I use Gala)
  • 2 Tablepoons of lemon juice
  • 2/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/3 cup brown sugar
  • 3 Tablespoons flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 2 tablespoons butter

Crumble Topping

  • 1 cup all purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup (packed) golden brown sugar
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 6 tablespoons chilled unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch cubes

Directions

  1. Peel and slice apples and add lemon juice to prevent browning
  2. Combine all dry ingredients and toss together with apples
  3. Put into a prepared unbaked pie shell
  4. Top with pie pastry and add slits to allow steam to escape or top with a Crumble Topping.
  5. Bake at 425 degrees F for 15 minutes then turn down to 350 degees F for 45 minutes. If the edges are getting too brown, place strips of foil around the edge while baking.

Directions for Crumble Toppings

Mix together all ingredients until they resemble course meal and sprinkle on top of pie mixture

Pecan Snowball Cookies

Ingredientswrks4me_terry_tested-11

  • 1 cup of flour
  • 1 cup finely chopped pecans
    (you can also toast them)
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 3 Tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 cup of powdered icing sugar for coating cookies

Directions

  1. Put all ingredients (except icing sugar) into a bowl
  2. Mix all together with your hands
    (you can put in refrigerator for 1/2 hour if cookie mixture are too soft to roll into balls)
  3. Roll cookies by hand into 1 inch balls (1/2 Tablespoon)
  4. Place on a cookie sheet lined with either parchment paper or silicone pad
  5. Bake at 350 degrees for 15-20 minutes.
    Watch them carefully as they can burn
  6. After they are cooked, roll them hot into the icing sugar which will “melt” over them. Once they are cooled, rolled them again (gently) in powdered sugar. Store loosely covered.

To Toast Nuts: Place them in an ungreased baking pan and bake at 350 degrees F for 8-10 minutes. Let them cool and then chop
