GRANDMA LIZZIE'S MILE-HIGH APPLE
PIE
 
pie crust for 9-inch pie (I can't make, so I use Pillsbury ready-made pie crust)
8 large McIntosh apples (12 medium size)
1 c. sugar
1 tsp. cinnamon
butter (to dot with)

Pare apples; core apples. Slices should be cut very thin. Use a large salad bowl; add sugar and cinnamon. Put bottom pie shell in pie plate (stoneware works best); mound up apples. Dot with butter. Stretch top pie shell to cover and seal edges. Cut an "A" in top to let steam out. Put tinfoil under pie -- VERY JUICY.

Bake at 425°F for 50 to 60 minutes. (If outer edge starts to get too brown, cover with tinfoil.)
