This is a recipe I got from my friend, Doug Bush, organ chair at Brigham Young University and amateur pie baker. This recipe will cradle and cover 1 9" pie. For a larger, deep-dish pie, I increase the recipe by 1½ to 1 cup more flour and the other ingredients correspondingly. The techniques are largely his, though over the years, I've gone my own way on some things.

	¾ cup	brown sugar
	¼ cup	all-purpose flour
	¾ tsp	cinnamon, ground
	pinch	cloves, nutmeg
	7 medium	apples
	—	Crust recipe, see here

1. Mix dry ingredients in a very large bowl.

2. Slice apples and toss with dry ingredients.

3. Arrange in crust. Bake in 400° oven about 60 minutes.
