Ingredients

2 5-ounce packages dried apples (4 cups)

3-1/2 cups apple cider or apple juice

1/4 cup sugar

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg

1 recipe Apple Pie Pastry (see recipe below)

1 tablespoon butter

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degree F. In a large saucepan combine dried apples and cider or juice. Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer, covered, 15 minutes. Stir in sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Simmer, uncovered, for 15 minutes (juices will be slightly thickened).

Meanwhile, prepare Apple Pie Pastry. Roll two-thirds of the pastry to a 12-inch circle. Transfer to a 9-inch pie plate. Trim pastry to 1/2 inch beyond edge of pie plate. Fold under extra pastry. Crimp edge as desired. Add prepared apple filling, spreading evenly. Dot with butter.

Cover edge of pie with foil. Bake for 20 minutes. Remove foil; bake 20 to 25 minutes more or until pastry is golden brown and apple edges begin to brown. Cool on a wire rack.

Roll remaining pastry into an oval about 6x4 inches. Cut into 1/2-inch-wide slivers. Place on a baking sheet; bake 8 to 10 minute. Scatter slivers over pie before serving. Makes 8 servings.

Apple Pie Pastry: In a medium bowl combine 1-3/4 cups all-purpose flour and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Using a pastry blender, cut in 1/2 cup shortening until pieces are the size of small peas. Using a total of 5 to 6 tablespoons cold water, sprinkle 1 tablespoon water over part of the mixture; gently toss with a fork. Push moistened dough to side of bowl. Repeat until all is moistened. Form into a ball.
