       Yield: 6 Servings
  
       1    Double crust
 
 ----------------------------------FILLING----------------------------------
       5 tb Quick-cook tapioca
       4    Lg tart apples
     1/2 c  Raisins
     1/2 c  Sugar
       1 ts Cinnamon
     1/2 c  Sugar
     3/4 c  Flour
     1/3 c  Butter
 
 ------------------------------FOR TOP OF CRUST------------------------------
       2 tb Milk
       1 tb Sugar
     1/2 ts Ground cinnamon
  
   Sprinkle bottom crust with tapioca. Pare apples; cut in eighths and arrange
   in 9" pastry lined pie pan. Sprinkle raisins over apples. Mix first 1/2 c.
   sugar with cinnamon; sprinkle over top of apples and raisins. Sift
   remaining 1/2 c. sugar with flour; cut in butter until crumbly. Sprinkle
   over apples. Cover with top crust. Mix 1 T. sugar with 1/2 tsp. cinnamon.
   Brush 2 Tablespoons of milk over top crust. Sprinkle with cinnamon/sugar
   mixture. Cut gashes in top for venting. I cut out small pie dough leaves
   and decorate the top of the pie with them. Bake in hot oven (450 degrees)
   for 10 minutes; then in moderate oven (350 deg.) about 40 minutes. This is
   my absolute favorite apple pie. I think it's good warm topped with a piece
   of cheddar cheese. My customers were crazy about it. Judy Garnett pjxg05a.
