How to make apple pie:

Preheat oven to 450°. Line 9-inch pie plate with pie crust. Peel and core and cut apples into very thin pieces. Cover pie with a pricked upper crust. Bake at 450° for 10 minutes; reduce heat to 350° and bake for an additional 45 minutes or until done.

For a delicious touch, sprinkle the top crust lightly with sugar and cinnamon as you put it into the oven. Have you ever tried half apples and half green tomatoes?
