Apple pie is an old time favorite. Apples are cored and then lemon juice, sugar and water added and cooked until the water evaporates. The apple stew is placed between the short crust pastry and baked in a oven. Stewed apples with cinnamon in a short crust pastry taste great. Serve with vanilla ice cream.
