Apricot Pie

Apricot Crumble Pie

We had a couple of neighbors give us some apricots yesterday and when we brought them home Sierra said she wanted an Apricot pie. Personally I have never heard of Apricot pie but I looked it up at http://www.kraftfoods.com/ and typed Apricot pie and sure enough this recipe appeared. Today all the kids and I made two pies. So if anyone has apricots and wants to try it here is the recipe. We actually really liked it.

2-1/4 lb. apricots, peeled, sliced (about 6 cups)
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup MINUTE Tapioca
1/2 cup flour
1/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) cold butter or margarine, cut up
1/2 pkg. (15 oz.) ready to use refrigerated pie crusts (1 crust)

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Toss apricots with granulated sugar and tapioca. Let stand for 15 min. Mix flour and brown sugar in medium bowl. Cut in butter until it resembles coarse crumbs; set aside.

Prepare pie crust as directed on package for unfilled 1-crust pie, using 9 inch pie plate. Fill with apricot mixture and top with crumb mixture.

Bake 45 to 50 min. or until juices form bubbles that burst slowly. Cool. YUMMY WHEN DONE!!!

Add a dolup of ice cream and enjoy!!!
