Pastry for 9-inch two crust pie  
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
5 to 6 medium (2 pounds) green tart cooking apples
2 tablespoons butter, cut into small pieces
1 to 2 tablespoons milk
1 tablespoon granulated sugar

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Prepare pie pastry.

In a large bowl, combine sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves; set aside.

Peel, core, and slice apples approximately 1/4-inch thick. Toss apple slices in sugar mixture until well coated.

Spoon apple filling into pastry-lined pie plate and dot with butter. Cover with remaining pastry and flute. Cut slits in pastry so stream can escape. Brush milk over top and then sprinkle 1 tablespoon sugar onto top of pie crust.

Bake 45 to 50 minutes or until crust is golden brown and apples are tender. Remove from oven and cool on a wire rack before cutting and serving.

Serve warm or at room temperature.

Makes 8 servings.
