Directions

1 Heat oven to 350°F. Make pie crusts as directed on box for Two-Crust Pie, using 9-inch glass pie plate.
2 In large bowl, mix apples, granulated sugar, flour, cinnamon and salt; toss lightly. Spoon mixture into crust-lined pie plate. Dot with 1 tablespoon butter. Top with second crust; seal edge and flute. Cut slits in several places in top crust.
3 Bake 50 to 55 minutes or until apples are tender and crust is golden brown. Cover edge of crust with strips of foil after 15 to 20 minutes of bake time to prevent excessive browning.
4 In 1-quart saucepan, melt 1/4 cup butter; stir in brown sugar and half-and-half. Slowly heat to boiling; remove from heat. Stir in pecans; spread over top of pie. Place pie on cookie sheet.
5 Bake 5 minutes longer or until topping bubbles. Cool at least 1 hour before serving.

EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

*Two 21-oz cans apple pie filling can be substituted for filling mixture.

For special occasions, arrange pecan halves in a design over the crust. Carefully spoon the topping over the pecans, and bake as directed.

This juicy pie will keep its shape better if you let it cool to room temperature (about 3 hours) before slicing it.

This apple season I made this pie for my family and several neighbors from my own apple trees. The compliments and raves were unbelievable to me since I am not known as the greatest baker. The praline topping set this pie apart from the usual apple pie. I am making this again for Thanksgiving and have had several requests from neighbors and friends for one for their Thanksgiving. I wish I could take the credit for this pie as my own creation. Thank you for this wonderful recipe.

I saw this exact recipe in a newspaper several years ago and have been making it for all my family get togethers. It is a big hit and super easy to make.
