I just love to cook and bake. This one just came to me. I wanted to make an apple pie for Thanksgiving, and not just a plain old apple pie so I went into the kitchen to see what I had in the cabinets. This recipe was so easy to make and it was so good, everybody was asking for seconds and asking to take some home. You just have to try this.

Filling:

2 cans Comstock apple pie filling
1/2 cup raisins
1/2 cup crushed walnuts
1/4 cup evaporated milk
1/4 teaspoon heaping ground cinnamon
1 pinch of ground ginger
1 pinch of ground cloves
2 pinches ground nutmeg
1 Keebler Graham Ready Crust

Topping:

1/4 cup brown sugar
3 tablespoons flour
1 pinch cinnamon
1 1/4 tablespoon butter melted

Preheat the oven to 425.

In a large bowl mix apple filling and dry ingredients. Mix well, then add the evaporated milk. Pour into pie crust. It will be heaping at the top. This is ok. This recipe should all fit in that crust.

In a separate bowl mix brown sugar, flour and cinnamon. Mix well then add the melted butter. The mixture will get clumpy. Break it up some but do leave some clumps. It will look like the toping on a crunch cake. Sprinkle this on top of the pie.

Bake in the oven for 15 minutes. Then turn the oven down to 325 and continue to bake for 30 minutes. When it's done, let it cool for one hour, then stick it in the fridge for another hour. Then, it's ready to eat!!
