What fall feast would be complete without an apple pie? Serve it warm a la mode or room temperature with fresh cream.

Classic Apple Pie

1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon sugar
1/4 cup firmly packed golden brown sugar
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
1/4 teaspoons ground cloves
1/8 teaspoons salt
8 cups sliced, peeled, cored Pippin or Granny Smith apples (about 7 medium)
1/4 cup melted butter

2. Combine 1/2 cup sugar, brown sugar, flour, teaspoons cinnamon, cloves and salt in large bowl. Add apples and butter and toss well.
3. Roll 1 disk out on lightly floured surface to 12-inch round. Roll dough up on rolling pin and transfer to 9-inch Pyrex pie plate. Trim edges. Spoon filling evenly into crust, mounding slightly in center. Roll second disk out on lightly floured surface to 12 inch round. Roll up on rolling pin and transfer to top of apples.
4. Trim edges to 3/4 -inch overhang. Turn top edge under bottom. Crimp edges decoratively. Cut several slits in crust to allow steam to escape. Place pie on heavy baking sheet.

Bake until pie is golden brown, juices bubble thickly in center and apples are tender, about 1 1/2 hours.
