Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
Pastry for 2-crust 9\" pie
4 McIntosh apples; peeled/ cored/thin sliced (1 lb)
½ cup Pecans; chopped
¼ cup Sugar
¼ pounds Caramels; coarse chopped
2 tablespoons Flour
¼ cup Milk
Milk; for top
Sugar; for top

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Ease 1 round of pastry into a 9-inch pan.

2. In a large bowl, toss together apples, pecans, sugar, caramels, flour and milk. Spoon mixture into pie shell.

3. Top with the remaining pastry. Fold the edge of the top pastry under the bottom pastry. Pinch together and flute the edge with a fork. Cut several slits in the top so the steam can escape during baking. Brush top with milk and sprinkle with sugar.

4. Bake until crust is golden brown, about 45 minutes. Pie is best served slightly warm.
