Mock Apple Pie

Does any one out there have the recipe for mock apple pie made with Ritz crackers? I used to make it for my kids when they were little. Now I have a grandchild and cannot find the recipe. Thank you all.

Ritz Mock Apple Pie

The classic pie, featuring Ritz crackers baked in a golden crust,
is perfect for the holidays.

• Pastry for two-crust 9-inch pie
• 36 RITZ Crackers, coarsely broken (about 1 3/4 cups crumbs)
• 1 3/4 cups water
• 2 cups sugar
• 2 tsp. cream of tartar
• 2 Tbsp. lemon juice
• Grated peel of one lemon
• 2 Tbsp. margarine or butter
• 1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon

1. Roll out half the pastry and line a 9-inch pie plate. Place
cracker crumbs in prepared crust; set aside.

2. Heat water, sugar and cream of tartar to a boil in saucepan
over high heat; simmer for 15 minutes. Add lemon juice and peel;
cool.

3. Pour syrup over cracker crumbs. Dot with margarine or butter;
sprinkle with cinnamon. Roll out remaining pastry; place over pie.
Trim, seal and flute edges. Slit top crust to allow steam to escape.

4. Bake at 425 F for 30 to 35 minutes or until crust is crisp
and golden. Cool completely.

Makes 10 servings
