Apple Pie Upside Down Recipe

Apple Pie Upside Down

From jlv1023 15 years ago

Made this from a Country Woman recipe and when I flipped it, I laughed so hard as it looked like a apple pancake, but the taste is fabulous,

In bowl, combine flour, & salt; cut in shortening and butter until crumbly.
Gradually add orange juice tossing with fork till dough forms a ball
Divide dough into 2 balls.
Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 30 minutes
Line a 9" DEEP dish pie plate with heavy duty foil, leaving 1-1/2" beyond edge,
Coat foil with cooking spray
In bowl combine 4 tbsp melted butter, brown sugar and pecans
Spoon into prepared pan
In large bowl, combine the sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, apples and 2 tbsp melted butter
Toss gently to mix
On waxed paper, roll out one ball of dough to fit pie plate
Place pastry over nut mixture, pressing firmly against mixture and sides of plate; trim to 1" beyond plate edge
Fill with apple mixture
Roll out other ball of dough and fit over top of filling
Fold bottom pastry over top pastry; seal & flute edges
Cut 4 slits in top pastry
Bake at 375 for 20 minutes
Cover edges loosely with foil
Bake 30 minutes longer or until apples are tender and crust is golden brown
Cool 15 minutes or longer on wire rack
Invert onto serving plate and remove foil carefully
SURE HOPE YOUR PIE is higher than mine, but if not, don't worry it will please everyone
Serve with vanilla ice cream if wanted

I don't care how high this gets, it sounds like a great recipe anyway. My apple tree is on an off year (no apples). But I'll save this for next year when we'll be giving them to everybody we know. Thanks.
