Love Apple Pie

Ingredients

• 1/3 cup ketchup
• 2 tsp. lemon juice
• 6 cups tart cooking apples, peeled and sliced (about 2 lbs.)
• 2/3 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/3 cup granulated sugar
• 1 tsp. cinnamon
• 1/3 cup unsalted butter or margarine, softened
• 1 unbaked 9-inch pie shell

Directions

Blend ketchup and lemon juice; combine with apples. (Note: If apples are very tart, add 1 to 2 tablespoons sugar to ketchup mixture.) For topping, combine flour, sugar and cinnamon; cut in butter until thoroughly mixed. Fill pie shell with apples; sprinkle topping over apples. Bake at 425° 40 to 45 minutes or until apples are cooked. Serve warm with ice cream, if desired.
