Grandma Wilsons Pumpkin Pie Recipes

HEALTHIER APPLE PIE BY GRANDMA OPLE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Melt the butter in a saucepan. Stir in flour to form a paste. Add water and brown sugar, and bring to a boil. Reduce temperature and let simmer.
• Place the bottom crust in your pan. Fill with apples, mounded slightly. Cover with a lattice work of crust. Gently pour the sugar and butter liquid over the crust. Pour slowly so that it does not run off.
• Bake 15 minutes in the preheated oven. Reduce the temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Continue baking for 35 to 45 minutes, until apples are soft.

GRANDMA'S PUMPKIN PIE

Steps:

• Beat eggs then mix with pumpkin in a large bowl.
• In a separate bowl, sift together sugar, flour, spices, and salt. (I usually don't sift the brown sugar because it's a pain.).
• Add flour mixture to pumpkin mixture and mix until combined.
• Add milk and mix until combined.
• Divide mixture between two 9" pie crusts/pans.
• Bake for 10 minutes at 425 degrees then turn oven to 350 degrees and continuing baking for roughly one hour. (Grandma's advice: "I just let mine puff clear up; if it's about an hour I figure they are done.").
• NOTE: If you are concerned about the crust of your pie getting too brown, use some aluminium foil around the edges of the crust to keep it from getting too brown.
