I have made this recipe since I was a kid. I think the original was from an old Betty Crocker cookbook. The filling is so good you can skip the pie crust and put it in pretty parfait glasses and top with whipped cream or ice cream!

APPLESCOTCH PIE



Applescotch Pie image

My family loves this recipe, and has said it's better than the usual apple pie recipes. My 3rd grade son requested I make it for his school's Thanksgiving feast. It calls for tart apples, but I've used Red Delicious, Fuji, pretty much whatever is on sale at the time. It also calls for "butter or margarine." I only use real butter, so I don't know what if any changes would occur if you use margarine.

APPLESCOTCH CRISP



Applescotch Crisp image

Meet the Cook: Just as soon as the first crop of apples is off the trees, I fix this crisp. Thanks to the butterscotch pudding, it's moist and sweet. It's popular at potlucks, and it's a nice snack. In fact, I'm reluctant to make it in the evening - I'm afraid someone will sneak down to the refrigerator at midnight and claim it! My husband and I have four children, ranging in age from 21 to 8. -Elaine Nicholl, Nottingham, Pennsylvania

Tips:

  • Prep your apples properly: Peeling and slicing the apples thinly will ensure they cook evenly and quickly.
  • Choose the right apples: Granny Smith apples are a popular choice for applescotch pie, as they hold their shape well and have a tart flavor that balances the sweetness of the toffee.
  • Don't overcook the apples: Cook the apples just until they are tender but still hold their shape. Overcooked apples will become mushy and lose their flavor.
  • Make sure the toffee filling is thick and bubbly: Cook the toffee filling over medium heat, stirring constantly, until it reaches a thick and bubbly consistency. If the filling is too thin, it will not set properly.
  • Let the pie cool completely before serving: This will allow the filling to set and the crust to crisp up.

Conclusion:

With its flaky crust, sweet and tangy apple filling, and rich, gooey toffee topping, applescotch pie is a classic dessert that is sure to please everyone at your table. Follow these tips to make the best applescotch pie possible, and enjoy!
