DUTCH APPLE PIE 
4 c. canned applesauce
1/4 tsp. salt
2 tbsp. flour
1/4 c. sugar
1 tsp. cinnamon
1/4 tsp. nutmeg
1 tbsp. grated lemon rind
Pastry for 2-crust 9-inch pie
1/2 c. dairy sour cream
1/2 tsp. vanilla
1/4 c. confectioners' sugar
1 to 2 tbsp. cream or milk

In a saucepan, mix applesauce, salt, flour, sugar, spices, and lemon rind. Cook and stir over moderately low heat for about 15 to 20 minutes, or until thickened. Cool to room temperature. Line a 9-inch pie pan with pastry and chill. Spoon filling into shell. Combine sour cream and vanilla. Spread over filling.

Roll out remaining pastry and cover the pie. Seal the edges and prick the top. Bake in a hot 400 degree oven for 35 minutes. Cool pie for about 20 minutes.

Mix confectioners' sugar and cream to a smooth paste. Then glaze the top of the crust. Serve warm or cold. Makes 6 to 8 servings.
