Highlight of the day? Apple Pie!

Being the all American southern gal that I am, I take my apple pies very seriously. So I was quite pleasantly surprised to discover the wondrous delights that befell me when I tasted the first spoon full of Swedish apple pie with vanilla cream sauce, or as they say in Sweden, äppelpaj och vaniljsås.

Delightful!

Swedish Apple Pie Recipe:

4 cups of sliced tart apples (about 4 medium)

2/3 to ¾ cup of packed brown sugar

½ cup of all-purpose flour (or self rising flour)

½ cup of oats (regular oatmeal will do not instant)

1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon (more if you wish)

¾ teaspoon of ground nutmeg

1/3 cup of butter softened

Heat oven to 375 degrees.

Arrange sliced apples in a greased 9 or 10 inch pie plate.

Mix remaining dry ingredients and butter.

Sprinkle mixture over the apples.

Bake for about 30 minutes.
