Caramel Apple Pie

Pastry for 1 9-inch, two crust pie

Apple Filling:
6 large green apples (Granny Smith); peeled, cored and chopped
1 cup granulated sugar
3 Tbsp. flour
2 tsp. cinnamon
1 Tbsp. lemon juice

Caramel Topping:
1/2 cup brown sugar
3 Tbsp. butter
2 Tbsp. heavy cream
1/2 cup chopped walnuts

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.

In a large bowl combine all of the filling ingredients, mixing well. Set aside.

Line a 9-inch pie plate with pastry. Turn filling into the pie shell. Roll out remaining crust and place over the filling. Seal and crimp edges. Cut 5-6 slits in top crust to vent steam.

Bake pie for 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 325°F. and continue baking until apples are tender and filling is bubbly, 55 - 65 minutes.

Caramel Topping:

Combine brown sugar, butter and cream in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil then reduce heat and cook over low heat for 2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the chopped walnuts. While pie is still warm spoon caramel over top of pie crust, coating it entirely. Cool pie before serving
