This is the recipe I concocted for the pie I took to the Hallowe'en party yesterday. I went over really well and is delicious for breakfast - don't judge me!

4 large (but not ridiculously large) apples (I used organic gala apples) - about 5-6 cups cut up.
3/4 C dark brown sugar
1/4 C flour
1/4 C dark rum
1-2 tsp cinnamon (I eyeballed it)

Preheat oven to 450. Mix together and let sit for ~10 min, then place in your prepared crust (I always make my own, 'cause that's how I roll, and I'm sure [profile] lonpig or I have posted that recipe before - if anyone wants it I can dig it up). Don't forget to cut steam vents in the top crust, and you can also place a cookie sheet on the rack below if you are worried about it bubbling over. This would probably also be good with a crumble or crisp style topping (butter, oatmeal, brown sugar).

I based my baking times on the joy of cooking, which said to go for 30 min at 450, and then another 30-45 at 350. This is crazypants, and I actually baked this one at 450 for 20 min and then 350 for 15. I would recommend 450 (or even 400) for 15 and 350 for 20-30. Your pie is done when it is golden brown on top and the apples are softened (poke with skewer or knife through the steamvents to test) and/or there is juice bubbling up through the vents.

Enjoy - delicious with vanilla ice cream or a slice of sharp cheddar :)
