How to make it
- Preheat oven to 425°F.
- Place 1 pie crust in 9-inch pie plate, pressing crust firmly into bottom and up side of plate.
- Beat egg and 1 tablespoon of the cream in small bowl until well blended.
- Brush edge of crust lightly with some of the egg mixture.
- Toss apples with granulated sugar, tapioca, lemon juice and cinnamon in large bowl; spoon into crust, pressing down gently with back of spoon to pack fruit slightly.
- Place remaining pie crust over filling.
- Wrap excess top crust under edge of bottom crust; press edges together to seal. Flute edge.
- Brush top crust with remaining egg mixture.
- Using a sharp knife, cut a 1-1/2-inch circle from center of crust to allow steam to escape. Remove and discard cutout.
- Cut 5 or 6 slits in top crust in spoke pattern, starting at center of crust and cutting to within 1/2 inch of outside edge of crust.
- Bake 15 minutes.
- Reduce oven temperature to 325°F. Continue baking an additional 1 hour to 1 hour 10 minutes, or until juices are thickened and bubbly. (If edge of pie browns too quickly, cover with strips of aluminum foil.)
- Combine brown sugar, butter and the remaining 2 tablespoons cream in small saucepan.
- Bring to a boil over high heat.
- Reduce heat to low; simmer 2 minutes.
- Remove from heat; stir in pecans.
- Spoon over top of pie; spread with back of spoon to completely cover top of pie. (Caramel will run over outside edge of pie, creating an icicle effect.)
- Cool pie completely.
- Cut into 8 wedges to serve.
- Top each wedge with a serving of Reddi-whip just before serving.
