4 medium sized apples
1 premade 9 inch pie crust
1.5 tsp cornstarch
1 tbsp water
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 cup granulated white sugar
1 egg whisked (for egg wash)
Preparation:
1. Slice off tops of apples. Using small sharp knife hollow out the centre of the apples, leaving about 1/4 - 1/2 inch on the sides. Save the flesh for filling.
2. Dice the removed apple flesh into small cubes. You should have about 1 cup worth when you are done. Make sure not to include seeds, skin, or any of the core.
3. Preheat oven 350 degrees F.
4. Dissolve cornstarch in water.
5. In small pot, combine 1 cup of diced apples, cornstarch mixture, cinnamon and white sugar.
6. Cook for about 5 minutes until apples are soft and syrup is brown and thick.
7. Add apple pie filling to each of the hollowed out apples.
8. Slice pie crust into 1/2 inch wide strips, long enough to be laid across the surface of the apple with a little extra hanging off of each side.
9. Lay 3 strips on the apple and then take 3 more strips and weave with strips already in place.
10. Brush pie crust with whisked egg wash.
11. Bake for about 20 minutes until crust is golden and apples are softened.
12. Drizzle with caramel sauce and top with vanilla ice cream if desired.
