MAKE PIES!

Apple Pie Filling:
5-7 Tart apples - peeled & sliced
3/4 - 1 C. Sugar
2 Tbls. Flour
Dash Salt
1 Tsp. Cinnamon
1/4 Tsp. Nutmeg
Mix all the above
Put into pie crust
Place 6 Tbls butter in Slabs on top of apples, then put top crust on pie!
Pinch edges together
I like to cut a cute Apple Shape in top crust...but my next adventure is to roll out the top crust and cookie cutter leaves to layer on top!
Top with Homemade Whip Cream or Vanilla Bean Ice Cream! Good Luck and Enjoy!
