  • 1 T grated lemon zest

  • 2 prepared pie crusts

Method

Preheat oven to 450F.

Notes

SJ Note 14 Oct 2009: This came out entirely too liquidy for my taste, but I'm not sure if it was the apples (the sort (Bramley) or the particular ones), or the recipe.  Might try it again sometime, probably with Granny Smith apples if I do.
