Apple Crumb Pie

2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 cup raisins (optional)
1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
3 tablespoons butter
DIRECTIONS
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
2. Place sliced apples in a large bowl. Sprinkle with lemon juice if desired. In a small bowl, mix together white sugar, 2 tablespoons flour, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Sprinkle mixture over apples. 3. Toss until apples are evenly coated. Stir in raisins and walnuts if desired. Spoon mixture into pastry shell.
4. In a small bowl mix together 1/2 cup flour and brown sugar. Cut in butter or margarine until mixture is crumbly. Sprinkle mixture over apple filling. Cover top loosely with aluminum foil.

I didn't really do much of anything last night but eat, read blogs and rest. We came home from work to a dinner of hamburger patties, green beans and fruit salad made by Crystal. The old knee was really throbbing by this time, so I was Very grateful to her for "doing the deed"!! LOL
Crys LOVES Apple pie...so this one is for her. Y'all have a happy day and stay warm and cozy!
