Paper Bag Apple Pie
This unusual baking method for apple pie caught our eye years ago, when it arrived via e-mail from reader Kathleen Johnstone. Pie baked in a bag? Hmmm... We baked the pie — a bit skeptically, perhaps — but found it to be beautifully golden brown, and perfectly cooked: toothsome yet tender apples, golden brown crust, light brown streusel topping. As Kathleen commented in her accompanying note, "Very good, and all the mess is inside the paper bag." Which it was, we're pleased to say.
If you're not quite happy with your own apple pie recipe; or have a chronic problem with bubbly apple pie and the subsequent mess and smoke it makes, we recommend the following recipe highly.
