8 c. sliced, pared apples
2 tbsp. lemon juice
1/4 c. flour
1/3 to 1/2 c. brown sugar
1/8 tsp. nutmeg
1 tsp. cinnamon
1 (10 inch) unbaked pie shell
6 oz. sharp Cheddar cheese, shredded

STREUSEL TOPPING:

1/3 c. butter
2/3 c. flour
1/2 c. brown sugar

Combine apples with lemon juice in a large bowl. Mix together 1/4 cup flour, 1/3 to 1/2 cup brown sugar, nutmeg and cinnamon in a separate bowl. Add to apples and mix. Place in pie shell. Top with Cheddar cheese.

For topping, mix 2/3 cup flour and 1/2 cup brown sugar; cut in butter until mixture is crumbly. Spoon streusel topping over shredded cheese, making sure cheese is completely covered so it will not burn. Bake at 425 degrees for 30 to 35 minutes or until bubbly and golden brown. This pie is at its best when served warm.
