Topsy Turvey Apple Pie

Directions

1. In a 9” pie pan, combine brown sugar, corn syrup and melted butter. Arrange pecan or walnut halves over the mixture. Set aside.

2. Make your favorite pie crust. Take the bottom crust and put it over the mixture in the pie pan. Heat oven to 425℉ (220℃).

3. In a small bowl, combine the sliced apples, sugar, nutmeg, flour and cinnamon; mix well. Arrange the apple/sugar mixture over the bottom crust of the pie. Top with the top crust. Seal and flute. Cut slits in several places.

4. Bake at 425F for 8 minutes, and then reduce heat and continue to bake at 375℉ (190℃) for 25 to 35 minutes, or until golden brown. It would be wise to place pie on cookie sheet covered with foil, as it will run over.

5. While pie is baking, prepare a glaze of ½ cup confectioners sugar, 1 teaspoon vanilla, and enough milk to make into a glaze. This will be used on the top of the pie when removed from the oven and still hot.

6. Remove pie from oven; loosen edge of pie. Cover top of pie with glaze. While still hot, carefully invert pie onto large serving plate. Serve warm or cold with whipped cream or ice cream.
