Apple Pie Squares

This the only pastry crust that I have ever been able to make with any success! My mom found this recipe in an old cookbook. I have substituted berries and peaches with great results, leave out the cinnamon if you use berries.


Apple Pie Squares

1 tsp salt
1 2/3 c butter
½ c water
1 egg
1 Tbsp vinegar

Mix together to form crust
Roll out ½ of dough to fit in jelly roll pan

Filling: 12 apples peeled and sliced
2 cups sugar
1/8 tsp nutmeg
2 tsp cinnamon
2 Tbsp flour
2 Tbsp lemon juice

Mix together and put in crust. Then put another layer of crust on the top.
Bake at 350 for 60 minutes , then drizzle with glaze.

Glaze: 4 Tbsp butter
1 ½ cups powdered sugar
3 Tbsp lemon juice
