One of my goals for today….besides finally getting my shower taken…LOL!!  Is to make pies for Thanksgiving at my BIL and SIL house.   I spent alot of time last night looking for the following recipe.  I subscribe to Taste of Home and Quick Cooking Magazine and I am notorious for making something, my hubby loving it and never able to fidn the recipe again.  So now I am typing up my recipes and putting them in a 3-ring binder if we like them.   We will see how I keep up on that.  Since i was typing up the recipes anyways, why not share them here!!    So this is the pie I am making today!!   Will have to run to the grocery store yet too!   Hmmmmmm  not good planning on my part!


Pecan Apple Pie


 


Pastry for double=-crust pie (9 inches)


1 cup sugar


1/3 cup all-purpose flour


2 teaspoons ground cinnamon


¼ teaspoon salt


12 cups thinly sliced peeled tart apples (about 10 apples)


 


TOPPING:


1 cup packed brown sugar


½ cup all-purpose flour


½ cup quick-cooking oats


½ cu cold butter or margarine


½ to 1 cup chopped pecans


½ cup caramel ice cream topping


 


Line two 9-inch pie plates with pastry.  Trim and flute edges; set aside.  In a large bowl, combine sugar, flour, cinnamon and salt; add apples and toss to coat.  Pour into pastry shells.  For the topping, combine brown sugar, flour and oats; cut in butter until crumbly.  Sprinkle over apples.  Cover edges loosely with foil.  Bake at 375 degrees for 25 minutes.  Remove foil; bake 25-30 minutes longer or until filling is bubbly.  Sprinkle with pecans; drizzle with caramel topping.  Cool on wire racks.  Yield:  2 pies (6-8 servings each).
