Ingredients:
1 (15-oz.) pkg. Pillsbury Refrigerated Pie Crusts
FILLING:
1/4 cup butter
1/2 cup sugar
1 egg
2 tablespoons Pillsbury BEST All Purpose Flour
1 teaspoon vanilla
3 large Granny Smith apples, peeled, cut into 1/2-inch wedges
STREUSEL:
1/2 cup Pillsbury BEST All Purpose Flour
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar
3/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 cup butter
TOPPING:
1/2 cup whipping cream
1 tablespoon powdered sugar
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon vanilla Mixing Instructions :
Prepare pie crust according to package directions for one-crust filled pie using 9-inch pie pan. (Refrigerate remaining crust for a later use.)
Heat oven to 400 degrees F.
In small saucepan, cook 1/4 cup butter over medium heat until melted and lightly browned, stirring constantly. Cool 15 minutes or until completely cooled.
In small bowl, combine 1/2 cup sugar and egg; beat until light and fluffy. Stir in 2 tablespoons flour and 1 teaspoon vanilla. With wire whisk, beat in cooled butter.
Pour into crust-lined pan. Arrange apple wedges over top.
Lightly spoon flour into measuring cup; level off. In medium bowl, combine all streusel ingredients except butter; mix well. With pastry blender or fork, cut in 1/4 cup butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Sprinkle over apples; press lightly.
Bake at 400 degrees F. for 20 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees F.; bake an additional 40 to 50 minutes or until apples are tender and crust is golden brown. If necessary, cover edge of crust with strips of foil after 15 to 20 minutes of baking to prevent excessive browning.
Cool 2 hours.
In small bowl, beat whipping cream until soft peaks form. Add remaining topping ingredients; beat until stiff peaks form. Pipe or spoon onto pie.
Store in refrigerator.
