Swedish Apple Pie

Ingredients:

• 8 medium-sized granny smith apples, peeled, sliced and cored. (The more spots on the apple, the sweeter the apple)
• 1 Tablespoons white sugar
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 3/4 cup butter, melted & cooled.
• 1 cup white sugar
• Pinch of salt
• 1 egg
• 1 cup flour
• 1/2 teaspoon almond extract (original recipe called for 1 tsp but we found that to be a bit overwhelming)
• 1/2 cup chopped pecans

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350*F

Spray a pie plate with non-stick spray and fill pie plate 3/4 full with sliced apples.

Sprinkle apples with 1 Tablespoon white sugar and cinnamon.

In a separate bowl, combine melted butter, 1 cup sugar, salt, egg, flour, almond extract & pecans. Mix well.

Spread egg mixture over apples gently.

Bake for 50 – 60 minutes or until the crust is golden.

It can be served warm or cold with whipped cream or ice cream.
