Ingredients

2 lbs. tart green apples (about 5 to 5½ cups sliced)
¼ cup water
½ cup sugar
½ cup brown sugar
½ tsp. nutmeg
½ tsp. cinnamon
¼ tsp. salt
¾ cup flour
½ cup butter

Peel the apples and slice them thinly. Put them in a rather shallow 1-quart casserole and sprinkle them with ¼ cup water.
Sift together
- ½ cup sugar
- ½ cup brown sugar
- ½ tsp. nutmeg
- ½ tsp. cinnamon, ¼ tsp. salt, ¾ cup flour.
Cut in ½ cup butter to the dry ingredients until all is well combined.
Sprinkle the topping thickly and evenly over the apples. Don’t mix the two together.
Cover the dish and bake at 350° for 20 minutes, then uncover and cook another ½ hour.

How do you know when it’s done?

The crust will be crisp on top, and will have partly seeped down through the apples, flavoring them and binding them slightly together.
Serve hot or cold, alone or with vanilla ice cream.
