Tart Apple Pie Recipe ingredients

• 4 to 6 tart apples
• ¼ cup water
• 1 egg yolk
• 1 cup sugar
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 1 teaspoon nutmeg
• Powdered sugar

To prepare this Tart Apple Pie Recipe, first line a pie pan with plain crust and fill with thinly sliced apples. Add the water and cover with a top crust, making it a little richer than the under one. This is easily done by rolling in bits of fat and folding the paste several times. Cut a few slits in the center of the top crust to allow stream to escape while cooking. Brush with beaten yolk of egg. When baked, and while still hot, remove the top crust carefully and sprinkle sugar over the cooked apple and dot with butter or butter substitute. Replace the top crust and dust with powdered sugar. This is an old-fashioned method. Ingredients given make one pie.
