Julia's Collections

When my mother passed away 20 years ago, my sisters and I had the not-so-fun job of going through her treasures. No one spoke for her recipe collections, so I grabbed them. You see, my mom was a fantastic cook. It seemed a shame to me to have those recipes go unclaimed! Well, here we are, 20 years later; and those recipes have rested in their special place on my closet shelf waiting to be tried . . . .

Coconut Apple Pie

I hope it tastes as good as it looks!
OH, it does! Next to the recipe title, Mom wrote (Very Good).


By the way, I used Cheri's "No Roll Pie Crust" from the Cousins Cookbook. It was great!


4 cups apples
1/2 cup sugar
1 tbsp. flour
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
2 tbsp. butter
Put thinly sliced apples in unbaked pastry. Combine sugar with flour, salt and cinnamon. Sprinkle mixture on top of apples. Dot with butter. Bake 425°F oven for 20 min. Then add coconut topping.
Topping:
Combine 1 well-beaten egg, 1/2 cup sugar, 1 cup shredded coconut, and 1/4 cup milk. Spread over top of partially baked pie, lower heat to 350°F. Bake 30 min. longer.
