APPLES!!!!!

 What in the world do you do when you have apples this big? Make a pie, of course! We order seasonal produce from a local source called www.bulknaturalfoods.com, and have enjoyed a few new varieties of apples this year. The variety you see above is called Mutsu. I have never been good at making piecrusts, but I finally learned a way to do it pretty!!! See below, prior to cooking:

 Pretty huh? Here is the link to how to do it, but don't pay attention to the recipe-we are going to healthify it! :)

Whole Wheat Pie Crust
2 c whole wheat flour
1/2 t sea salt
Mix together well, then follow the instructions on how to cut in 2/3 c butter
Mix 1/2 c very cold water with 2 T agave nectar, and pour into the mix a little at a time until it reaches the flaky consistency shown on the video. Then, split it into 2 balls and roll out as shown in video.

Filling
6 c sliced apples-mix varieties if you'd like
1/4 c agave
3 T whole wheat flour
juice from 1/2 lemon
1 t cinnamon
3/4 t nutmeg
dash or 2 of sea salt

Mix well, and put in the crust. Cut 1 T butter into small pieces and dot over the filling. Top with other crust, and follow the video's instructions to make it pretty. Bake at 425 for about 40 minutes.

It was delicious! A different taste because it's whole wheat, but delicious, nonetheless! Be sure to let me know if you want to join the Group Buy. I'd like to order by November 1 if possible.
