STREUSEL
1/3 c Sugar
1/4 c Brown sugar
10 tb Flour
1 ts Cinnamon
1 ts Nutmeg
1 ds Salt

1/2 c Walnuts, coarsely chopped

1 Unbaked 10″ pie shell
1 c Sugar
3 tb Flour
1/2 ts Cinnamon
1 lg Egg
1 c Heavy cream ( whipping)
1 ts Vanilla

In a food processor bowl, mix the first 6 ingredients for streusel together. Add the butter, and process until mixture is crumbly; it should still have a dry look, don’t over process. Add nuts, and set aside.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Peel, core, and thinly slice the apples (should be about 4 cups). Place apples in pie shell. In a small bowl, mix the sugar, flour and cinnamon. Beat the egg in a medium bowl, and add the cream and vanilla. Add the sugar mixture to the egg mixture, and blend. Pour over the apples.

Bake for 1 hour in the lower third of oven. After 20 minutes, sprinkle streusel over top. and continue baking about 40 minutes longer, or until the top puffs, and is golden brown.
