Ingredients

1 1/3 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup plus 5 tablespoon flour
1 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon grated nutmeg
1 pinch salt
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, cold
1/2 cup walnuts, coarsely chopped
4 large apples, McIntosh or Granny Smith (4 cups)
1 unbaked 10 inch pie shell
1 egg
1 cup heavy whipping cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

In a food processor bowl, mix the streusel ingredients, 1/3 cup sugar, brown sugar, 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoon flour, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, nutmeg and salt.
Add the butter and process until the mixture is crumbly; it should still have a dry look to it -- don't over process. Add the nuts then set aside.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Peel, core and thinly slice apples; there should be 4 cups. Place apples in the pie shell.
In a small bowl, mix the remaining sugar, flour, and cinnamon. Beat the egg in a medium bowl, and add the cream and vanilla.
Add the sugar mixture to the egg mixture and blend. Pour over the apples.
Bake for 1 hour in the lower one-third of the oven. After 20 minutes, sprinkle streusel over the top and continue baking approximately 40 minutes longer, or until the top puffs and is golden brown.

I find it quite amusing that this Amish recipe requires a food processor. Think about it!

Sounds real good, but I bet the Amish didn't use a food processor.

My thought exactly. They probably make this the same way I do; w/o a processor. :-)
