Preparation:
Combine first 6 ingredients, mixing well. Set aside. Roll out half
the pastry, to fit an 11x15-inch rimmed baking sheet. Place pastry on
sheet and cover with apple filling to within 1/2" of edge. Dot with
butter. Roll out remaining pastry and place over apples. Turn edges
of bottom pastry over top and flute or pinch edges to seal; prick top
with fork or knife in several places. Bake in 350 degree F. oven for
1 hour, or until apples are fork tender and crust is golden brown.
Meanwhile, in a bowl, mix the 3 Tbs. lemon juice with powdered sugar.
Spread icing over hot pastry; sprinkle with the 1/2 cup of walnuts,
which have been finely chopped. Let cool; cut into 24 bars. |
