A warm double-crust apple pie – bring back memories of my grandma and helping her make pie crust. This old timed favorite has been revised to a to a healthier option. I love to warm a slice and add a tablespoon of cream for a delicious THM crossover treat.

Roll remaining dough ball between to pieces of plastic wrap. remove top piece of wrap and flip dough over top of the apples. Carefully press crust edges together and trim. Flute. Place pie in oven. Bake for 40-45 minutes. Cover the pie with foil after it has baked for 20 minutes. Five minutes before the pie is finished, melt butter in a sauce pan. Add cream, Brown Sugar Substitute, and extracts. Boil for 3 minutes. Add nuts. Remove pie from the oven and spoon caramel sauce over the top crust, spreading to cover the entire crust. Cool. Serve 8-10.
**The pie crust has a tendency to be fragile. I make sure the bottom crust has all the seams sealed. If the top crust has a few holes as pictured below that is okay.
