TOTAL TIME: Prep: 30 min. Bake: 40 min. + cooling
MAKES: 8 servings
Ingredients

• 1 cup sugar
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1-1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 6 medium tart apples (about 2-1/4 pounds), peeled and thinly sliced
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 (14.1 ounces) refrigerated pie pastry
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 3 tablespoons maple syrup, divided
• Warm maple syrup, optional

Directions

1. In a small bowl, combine the first five ingredients. In a large bowl, toss apples with lemon juice. Add sugar mixture; toss to coat.
2. Unroll one pastry sheet into a 9-in. pie plate; trim even with rim. Add filling. Dot with butter; drizzle with 2 tablespoons maple syrup. Unroll remaining pastry; place over filling. Trim, seal and flute edge. Cut slits in top. Brush pastry with 1 tablespoon maple syrup.
3. Bake at 425° for 40-45 minutes or until crust is golden brown and filling is bubbly. Cover pie loosely with foil during the last 20 minutes if needed to prevent overbrowning. Remove foil. Cool on a wire rack. If desired, serve with warm maple syrup. Yield: 8 servings.
