I put this recipe in because I made it several times. I stopped when the flavor of the cinnamon grahams changed! I was disappointed with the change. When you tasted the best, you can't go back. I never used the Caramel Pecan Whipped Cream. The pie was great without it. If you can find a flavorful cinnamon graham, by all means, try it. It's worth it!1

Ingredients

CRUST:
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup shortening
6 tablespoons ice cold water
TOPPING:
2/3 cup crushed cinnamon graham crackers
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
3 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1/3 cup butter
APPLE FILLING:
6 to 8 apples, peeled and sliced, about 5 cups
1 1/2 teaspoons lemon juice
1 cup sugar
6 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
EGG WASH:
1 egg, beaten with 1 tablespoon water
GARNISH:
1/4 cup Caramel Butterscotch Ice Cream Topping
Caramel Pecan Whipped Cream

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
CRUST: Mix flour and salt. Cut in shortening until mixture resembles course ground cornmeal. Add water 1 tablespoon at a time. Roll out 2/3 of dough for bottom crust and place into pie pan. Roll out last 1/3 of dough and cut into strips for lattice top crust. On parchment paper or cookie sheet, weave the strips to form lattice. Set aside.
For topping: mix cracker crumbs, brown sugar and flour. Cut in butter until crumbly. Set aside.
For filling: combine apples, lemon juice, sugar, flour, and cinnamon. Spoon apple filling into crust.
Sprinkle cracker topping over apples.
Slide lattice crust over top of pie. Fold edges of bottom crust over ends of lattice crust, pressing to seal. Brush lattice strips with egg wash.
Fold foil strips around edges of crust and bake for 15 minutes. Remove foil and continue baking for an additional 40 minutes or until apples are bubbling and crust is browned. While still hot, drizzle pie with Caramel Butterscotch Ice Cream Topping. Cool the pie before serving. Top with Caramel Pecan Cream Sauce.
