Cornish mock squab pie

1 pie

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
4 Or more apples; peeled, quartered, cored and sliced
1 large Onion; sliced
2 teaspoons Pumpkin Pie spice*
½ pounds Lamb or mutton; diced
1 cup Sugar
½ Recipe- pie crust for lid

Directions

These are Great Aunt Ellen's word for word instructions: "Cut up some apples to ½ fill the dish; then cut up a nice large onion; add 2 tsp. of spice (not the sweet but what you put in pork pudding) Add ½ or ¾ pound mutton cut up just like we should for pasty, a good cup of sugar, then more apples to fill the dish." My [Mabel's] note: The spices were about the same as I put in pumpkin pie. I used pie crust topping but tea biscuit dough is alright.

*Jim's Notes: Pumpkin pie spice mix: Combine 1 tsp cinnamon, ½ tsp ginger, ¼ tsp cloves and ½ tsp nutmeg.
