Instructions: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Fill a large glass 13" x 9" x 2" baking dish three-fourths full of sliced apples. Top with 34/3 cup sugar and cinnamon, adding nuts if desired. Let stand while you mix together the flour, one cup sugar, salt, and baking powder. In a separate bowl, beat egg until light, and work into flour mixture until crumbly. Place cruble mixture over apples. Pour melted butter over the top. Bake for 45 minutes, until crust is lightly browned.

NOTES : I made this dessert to take to Troup for a family dinner. I used a combination of Granny Smith and some less tart apple. I used only 8 apples, because that was all I had. The fun part was using my Pampered Chef apple peeler/slicer/corer to process the apples. Great sport! I cooked the dish in a disposable aluminum pan as I was taking it traveling and didnt want a plate to carry home. I didnt use quite all of either the cinnamon/sugar combination or the flour/sugar, etc. combination - almost, but not quite. I thought the dessert might have been a little too sweet and the crust a little too thick, but my "testers" said "no." Fine like it was. Linda thought maybe it should have a bit more cinnamon.

The original recipe said it served 16, but I dont think so.
