Directions
Prepare pie crusts for a 2-crust pie. Heat oven to 350℉ (180℃).
In a large bowl, combine apples, sugar, flour, cinnamon and salt; toss lightly. Spoon into crust lined pan. Dot with butter. Top with second crust and flute the edges; cut slits in several places.
Bake at 350℉ (180℃) for 50 to 55 minutes, or until apples are tender and crust is golden brown. Remove from oven.
Topping:
In a small saucepan melt the butter or margarine, stir in brown sugar and half-and-half. Slowly bring to a boil; remove from heat. Stir in pecans. Spread over the top of the pie.
Place pie on a baking sheet and return to 350℉ (180℃) oven; bake an additional 5 minutes or until topping bubbles. Cool at least 1 hour before serving.
