BIRD'S NEST PIE 
4 to 5 med. apples, peeled and sliced
2 c. all purpose flour
1 c. sugar
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. cream of tartar
1 c. sour milk
1 egg

TOPPING:

1/4 c. sugar
1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp. ground nutmeg

Divide apples evenly between two greased 9 inch pie plates; set aside. In a mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking soda, cream of tartar, sour milk and egg; mix well. Divide batter and pour over apples. Bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes or until pies are lightly browned and test done. Invert onto serving plates (so apples are on top). Combine all topping ingredients; sprinkle over apples. Serve warm.

(To sour milk, place 1 tablespoon white vinegar in a measuring cup; add enough milk to equal 1 cup. Let stand for 5 minutes.) Yield: 12 servings.
