Comments: Very good. I have made this for 50 years and everyone loves it. This was given to me 50 plus years ago by my mother-in-law and her directions were very simple. |
Ingredients: ![]() For Top and Bottom Crust: 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour 1 cup lard (or solid vegetable shortening, such as Crisco Shortening) 1 tbsp. granulated sugar 1 tsp. salt 1 egg yolk with enough milk to make 2/3 cup 2 handfuls (approximately 2 cups) cornflakes, crushed Apple Filling: 16 cups sliced apples (approximately 16 to 20 medium size apples, cored, and peeled) 1 cup granulated sugar 1 tsp. ground cinnamon For Egg Wash: 1 egg white For the Glaze: Powdered sugar (confectioners' sugar or icing sugar) Water |
Instructions: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F/180 degrees C. In a large mixing bowl, mix together all crust ingredients as you would a pie crust. Roll out dough as you would for a pie, using half the dough for the bottom crust and the other half for the top crust. Place bottom crust in the bottom of an 11" x 18" jelly roll pan. Put two handfuls (approximately 2 cups) of crushed cornflakes over top of bottom crust. Fill the bottom crust with the sliced apples. Spread the one cup sugar and 1 tsp. ground cinnamon over the sliced apples, then top apples with the other half of dough. For the Egg Wash: Stiffly beat the egg white, then spread over the top crust. Bake in preheated 350 degree F oven until done, approximately 45 minutes. For the Glaze: When apples slices are done and cooled completely, make a glaze of powdered sugar and water and pour or drizzle over pie. Cut pie into approximately 30 slices. Makes approximately 30 servings. |
