     1/4  cup           coarsely chopped walnuts
   2      cups          sugar
   2      tsp.          cinnamon
     1/8  tsp.          nutmeg
   2      tsp.          lemon juice
                        Pastry for 2 double crust 9" pies
   4      Tbs.          butter
                        Glaze:
   3      Tbs.          lemon juice
   1 1/2  cups          powdered sugar
     1/2  cup           chopped walnuts

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.
