----------------------------------FILLING---------------------------------5 tb Quick-cook tapioca 4 Lg tart apples 1/2 c Raisins 1/2 c Sugar 1 ts Cinnamon 1/2 c Sugar 3/4 c Flour 1/3 c Butter ------------------------------FOR TOP OF CRUST-----------------------------2 tb Milk 1 tb Sugar 1/2 ts Ground cinnamon Sprinkle bottom crust with tapioca. Pare apples; cut in eighths and arrange in 9" pastry lined pie pan. Sprinkle raisins over apples. Mix first 1/2 c. sugar with cinnamon; sprinkle over top of apples and raisins. Sift remaining 1/2 c. sugar with flour; cut in butter until crumbly. Sprinkle over apples. Cover with top crust. Mix 1 T. sugar with 1/2 tsp. cinnamon. Brush 2 Tablespoons of milk over top crust. Sprinkle with cinnamon/sugar mixture. Cut gashes in top for venting. I cut out small pie dough leaves and decorate the top of the pie with them. Bake in hot oven (450 degrees) for 10 minutes; then in moderate oven (350 deg.) about 40 minutes. This is my absolute favorite apple pie. I think it's good warm topped with a piece of cheddar cheese. My customers were crazy about it. Judy Garnett pjxg05a. -----
