Directions

1

Apple and Elder-berry=--1½ pt. apple prepared as for apple pie, 1 pt. elder-berries, ¾ cup sugar, 1 tablespn. flour, 2 teaspns. lemon juice, salt. Lemon juice may be omitted. A smaller proportion of elder-berries maybe used and the pie still be delicious.

2

Dutch Apple=--Fill a buttered pie plate with apples without sugar, dot with bits of butter, cover with a rather thick crust and bake. Invert on dessert plate, sprinkle with sugar (mixed with coriander if liked) and serve hot.

3

Phoebe’s, Delicious=--Nearly fill the crust with dry, nicely seasoned, fresh apple sauce; cover with a ⅓ inch layer of raspberry jam which has been beaten so as to spread well; bake. The jam may be put on after the pie is baked, or both apple and jam may be put into a baked crust. The pie may have a meringue, but Phoebe’s didn’t.--It may also be baked with two crusts.

4

Rhubarb and Apple=--1¼ qt. rhubarb, ⅓-½ cup thick, slightly sweetened, strained apple sauce, 1½ cup sugar, 2½ tablespns. flour, ¼ teaspn. salt. Mix apple sauce with rhubarb and proceed as in apple pie.
