Pie Recipes

Apple Pandowdy

2 sticks or 1 packet pie crust mix
1 can (20 oz.) apple slices, drained
1/2 cup brown sugar (packed)
3 tbsp. butter or margarine, melted
6 tbsp. maple-flavored syrup

Heat oven to 425 degrees. Prepare pastry for 8-inch Two-crust Pie as directed on package. Stir together apple slices and brown sugar; turn into pastry-lined pie pan. Top with butter and 3 tablespoons of the syrup. Cover with top crust which has slits cut in it; seal and flute.

Bake 15 minutes; remove from oven. Make crisscross cuts about 1 inch apart through top crust and filling. Drizzle remaining syrup on top. Cover edge with 2-to3-inch strip of aluminum foil to prevent excessive browning; bake 25 minutes longer. Serve warm and, if you wish, pour on additional syrup.
