directions

  • Combine the first five ingredients (apples, brown sugar, cornstarch, amaretto and cinnamon in a bowl and mix well.
  • Pour this mixture into the unbaked pastry shell.
  • In a separate bowl, combine the pecans and remaining ingredients and stir until this mixture is crumbly.
  • Sprinkle this mixture over the apple pie and press it gently into the pie filling.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for one hour or until lightly brown. (I do use a pie ring to keep the crust from getting too brown).
  • Serve warm or cool to room temperature before serving.
  • I have also served it with spiced whipped topping which is one small container of Cool Whip to which I've added 2 tablespoons of either pumpkin pie spice or apple pie spice and 1 tablespoons of brown sugar and stirred well.

  1. I don't know whether I messed it up or not but the topping came out like soup rather than crumbly. I would suggest 1/4 cup butter and slowly drizzle until crumbly, DON'T add it all at once!!! Other than that it came out with a pretty phenomenal flavor.
