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.
