From Better Homes and Garden "New" Cook Book.  (To be honest, this is not quick and I find making crust hard, (but worth it)....but boy is it good.  When I make this for parties, it is GONE!)
1 recipe for pastry for double-crust pie
6 C thinly sliced, peeled cooking apples (about 2 1/4 lbs)
3/4 C sugar (I often cut the sugar a little bit)
2 Tb all-purpose flour
1/2 t ground cinnamon (I always double and then some the cinnamon!!!)
1/8 t ground nutmeg
1. prepare and roll out crust...line a 9-in pie plate w/half of the pastry
2. In a large bowl stir together the 3/4 C sugar, flour, cinnamon, and nutmeg.  Add apple slices  and gently toss until coated.
3. Transfer apple mixture to the pastry-lined pie plate.  Trim bottom pastry to edge of pie plate.  Cut slits in remaining pastr; place on filling and seal.  Crimp edge as desired.
4. To prevent browning, cover edge of pie with foil.  Bake in a 375 degree oven for 40 min.  Remove foil.  Bake 20 min more or until fruit is tender and filling is bubbly.  Cool on a wire rack.
This is my husband's favorite dessert when completed with vanilla ice cream and a cup of coffee. :)  I'm asking for an apple corer/peeler contraption for Christmas...

After nagging you for so long for this recipe, I never made it.... until last night. It was as great as I remember it being! :)
