Caramel Apple Pie

My son, Jake, commanded the kitchen tonight with this pie....it was almost all him!!




I can make a heck of a pie crust, but the truth is, it's a step I would rather not do and have to clean up, so usually I buy prepared pie crusts in the refrigerater section at the grocery store.   You can do whichever you prefer for this recipe.

In you pie pan, start with one pastry crust on the bottom.  Next layer 6 cups apples, with 3 T. flour, 1/2 c. sugar.  Meanwhile, melt 1/2 a stick of butter, 1 c. brown sugar, and 1/4 cup milk.  Simmer until butter is completely melted and remove from heat and add 1 tsp. Almond flavoring.  Poor over apples in your pie crust.  Top with a mixture of 1 c. brown sugar, 1/2 c. flour, 1/2 c. rolled oats cut with 1/2 c. butter.  Bake at 375 degrees for 40-50 minutes.  Serve with vanilla ice cream.

This was lush, enjoy!!
