MACAROON TOP APPLE PIE
(Added October, 2003)

Similar to the delicious pie served at Len Berg's in Macon, GA


PIE INGREDIENTS:

  • 4 c. sliced apples
    
          
  • 1/2 c. sugar
    
          
  • 1/4 tsp. cinnamon
    
          
TOPPING INGREDIENTS:
  • 1/2 c. sugar
    
          
  • 2 tbsp. butter
    
          
  • 1 egg
    
          
  • 1/2 tsp. baking powder
    
          
  • 1/4 tsp. salt
    
          
  • 1/2 c. flour
    
          
  • 1/2 tsp. vanilla
    
          
  • 1/2 c. coconut 

PIE:

-- Peel apples and slice into buttered 9" or 10" glass pie plate.
 
-- Mix 1/2 cup sugar and cinnamon, add apples, stirring enough to coat the slices with sugar.
 
-- Bake for 20 minutes in 375 degree oven while preparing the topping.

TOPPING:

-- Cream butter and second half cup of sugar.
 
-- Add beaten eggs, then sifted dry ingredients, vanilla and coconut.
 
-- Spread this completely over the top of hot apples.

BAKE:

-- Bake 30 minutes longer at 375 degrees until apples are tender and crust is golden brown.
 
-- Cut into wedges.
 
-- Serve warm or cold.
 
-- Whipped cream or ice cream make a good addition.
 
-- Coconut gives the macaroon flavor, but dessert is equally good without it.
 
-- Cortlands or McIntosh are best in this recipe.
