Short Grey Days of December~

Still there is beauty to be found..as well as fun..
While away..Jacques said..when we get back I would love one of those Brown Bag Apple Pies..Kim's..



Perfect day for baking a pie in a bag for an hour.. the aroma is wonderful..
It's a fun recipe..I have mentioned it before..and no my bag has never caught on fire:)


La Recette..

7 cups of prepped apples
2 tbsps flour
1/2 cup sugar
squeeze some lemon

toss with cinnamon and cardamom to taste..

Put in a pie shell..
Top with this crumb topping:

1/2 flour
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup butter

I do what Kim does and double the topping..

Place in a brown paper bag close it and place on a cookie sheet bake for 1 hr in a preheated 425 degree oven/
..

Ever since I read a book about a girl opening a pie shop in NYC..I top my pies w/ trees:)Made out of leftover pastry dough~These pies..

Keeper recipe..hope you like it..Kim if you're out there..I still think of you often:)

Even rainy gloomy days have cozy comforts.. in December~
