Tips & Techniques

  • Special Touch

    A sprinkling of sugar before baking gives the crust a sparkly and sweet finish. Try using coarse sugar (available in the supermarket baking aisle) instead of granulated sugar for an extra-­special sugar twinkle.

Ingredients

  • 1  box Pillsbury® refrigerated pie crusts, softened as directed on box
  • 1/2  cup sugar
  • 4  teaspoons cornstarch
  • 2  teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 4  cups thinly sliced, peeled apples (4 medium)
  • 1  teaspoon sugar
  • 2  tablespoons chopped pecans or walnuts

Directions

  1. 1Heat oven to 450°F. Remove pie crust from pouch; place flat on ungreased cookie sheet.
  2. 2Mix 1/2 cup sugar, the cornstarch and cinnamon in medium bowl. Add apples; toss gently. Spoon apple mixture onto center of crust, spreading to within 2 inches of edge. Fold edge of crust over apples, ruffling decoratively. Brush edge of crust with water. Sprinkle with 1 teaspoon sugar.
  3. 3Bake 15 minutes or until crust is golden brown. Sprinkle pecans over apple mixture. Bake 5 to 15 minutes longer or until apples are tender.
