Secret Apple Pie Recipe
This secret apple pie recipe has been handed down in my family for 4 generations. My great grandmother in 1850 brought it will her when she migrated west to Iowa from Ohio. I think your family will enjoy it as much as mine.
Delicious with whipped cream or natural vanilla ice cream. Even better with homemade vanilla ice cream like my great grandmother made.

1/4 teaspoon salt

2 tablespoons cold butter

Using pie weights bake at 425 degrees for 15 minutes to partially cook lower pie crust.
Combine flour, sugar, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, allspice and ginger in a small bowl and mix thoroughly. Place apples in a large bowl. pour dry ingredients over apples and mix well. Pour apples into bottom pie crust. Dot with butter or margarine. Pile high in pie plate.
Roll out remainder of pastry; cover pie, pressing edges tightly together. Trim off extra crust. . Prick top of crust with fork or knife.
Mix egg and water well and brush lightly over top crust.

1/4 c. dark rum
1/8 tsp. ground cinnamon
2/3 c. sugar

1 tbsp. vanilla
1/8 tsp. salt
2/3 c. all purpose flour confectioners sugar
Directions

Heat oven to 350 degrees. Butter 10 inch round baking dish and set in in the oven to heat.
Put eggs, milk, butter, vanilla, flour, sugar and salt in lender and blend until smooth.
Pour half of the batter into the dish. With a slotted spoon, remove the apples from the skillet and spread prepared fruit evenly over batter.
Then pour batter over fruit and bake until puffed and brown; a sharp knife should come clean out of the middle, about 45 minutes. Sprinkle 2 tsp sugar and a little cinnamon over batter.
Warm reserved juices from the fruit and drizzle over top.
