Best time for Baking Fruit Pie in a Bag?!
Will checking it (letting the steam out) disturb the cooking!? What is the quickest fruit for pie in the bag!? Thank you!Www@FoodAQ@Com
Answers:
you can always prepare the fruit ahead of time in a saucepan which takes that problem out of the equation!. the point in the bag is to produce a flaky crust by wicking away the moisture !. !. !. in this recipe they recommend you staple the bag shut!.
Ingredients
1 unbaked 9-inch pie shell
2 1/2 lbs cooking apples (to make 7 cups good sized chunks, I use 6 or 7 extra-large Granny Smiths)
1 cup granulated sugar, divided use
1/2 cup all-purpose flour, plus
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour, divided use
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg or cinnamon (I use a little of each)
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1/2 cup very soft butter or margarine
1 large brown paper bag (plain brown paper grocery bag, preferably without ink or printing if possible)
Directions
1About an hour and a half before serving pie:!.
2Prepare favorite pastry pie crust (I use recipe #117824)!. Then make pie shell having fluted or rope edge!.
3Start heating oven to 400 d F!. Wash, pare then quarter apples; cut each quarter into 4 pieces, making 7 cups good-sized chunks!.
4In a large bowl, toss apple chunks with a mixture of 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons flour, and the nutmeg or cinnamon, until each apple chunk is completely coated!. Fill pie shell with apple chunks, piling them high in the center of the pie; then sprinkle them with lemon juice!.
5Thoroughly mix 1/2 cup each of sugar and flour, and the butter, into a soft paste; spread over top of piled apple chunks!.
6Place pie in paper bag, closing open end (I fold over the open end once, then staple shut with a staple or two)!. Set on rack in center of oven and bake about 1 hour, or until pie is done and nicely browned!. (Note: never leave pie unattended while baking, especially when using the paper bag method!)!.
7When pie is nicely browned, remove pie from oven and let cool in the bag for 5-10 minutes!.
8Carefully remove pie from the paper bag and place pie on rack!. Let pie cool on rack for about 30 minutes before slicing!.
9Serve warm with ice cream!. Enjoy!

You need to thaw the fruit!. Mix it up however you prefer to make that nice goopie stuff in between the fruit pieces!. Other than that all you have to do is wait for the crust to brown!. You will also want to make sure that the bottom is nice and brown too!. If you have a glass bottom pan it is easiest!. If you don't cover the top crust after it has browned, and bake for about 15-20 minutes longer!.
Don't check it often or yes it will take longer!. Check it after about 45 min minimum!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
