Ingredients

• dough for 2 pie crust-homemade or bought
• 3 cups thinly sliced apples (3 or 4)
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 6 Tbsp. chopped walnuts
• 2 tsp. fresh lemon juice
• 1/2 tsp. cinnamon
• 1/4 tsp. grated lemon peel
• 1 egg yolk
• 1 Tbsp. water
• 1/3 cup confectioners' sugar
• 2 tsp. lemon juice

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Fit one pie crust into a 9-inch pie plate.

2. Combine sliced apples, sugar, walnuts, lemon juice, cinnamon and lemon peel in large bowl. Spoon into crust.

3. Cut second crust into twelve 1/2 inch-wide strips. Arrange in lattice pattern on top of filling; flute edges. Combine egg yolk and water in small bowl; gently brush on crust.

4. Bake 30 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees and bake 15 to 25 minutes more, until apples are tender. (If pastry browns too quickly, cover loosely with foil.) Cool on wire rack 1 hour.

5. Combine confectioners’ sugar and lemon juice in small bowl; drizzle over pie.
