9 tart apples
1-3/4 cup sugar
2 Tbl flour
3 Tbl butter
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp cinnamon

Prepare the crust (see Mom's Pie Crust recipe). Line a 9- or 10-inch pie pan with crust. Peel and slice the apples. Place the sliced apples in a bowl; add flour, sugar, salt, and cinnamon. Mix thoroughly to coat the apple slices. Place the apple sliced in the lined pie pan. Cut butter into thin slices and place intermittently over the top of the apples. Place a second crust over the apples. Seal the edges of the crust and flute.

Page the pie at 425 degrees for 50 minutes or until the apples are tender.
