Put the pie in a haeavy brown paper bag (not a recycled one) place in center of oven and bake at 350 degrees F for 1 hour 30 minutes.
Remember not to let the bag touch the walls of the oven.
The paper bag may produce a small amount of smoke for the first few minutes. This has happened each time I have used this recipe. Just keep a close eye on it as it bakes.
The bag should be folded closed when you put it in the oven. You'll notice that as the pie bakes and the bag heats it will get darker in color -- that's normal.
Be sure to use oven mits when you open the bag after the pie is baked, there will be a small amount of steam escaping from the bag that can burn.

Cooking With Vera Brown Bag Apple Pie
My favorite thing about this recipe is the sweet, comforting aromas that wafted through my home as it baked. It smelled of family, friends and most of all love!
You’ll need about thirty to forty minutes of preparation time for this recipe depending on your peeling and knife skills. If you have a mandoline to slice the apples, the prep time with be much shorter. Let the pie rest for at least one hour before serving. I used Granny Smith apples, but you can use which ever you’d like. I made it with sweet Fuji apples the first time, which yielded a sweet, but flat tasting pie, it wasn’t sugary, just one dimensional. In this video, I used Granny Smiths which created a little party in my mouth. It was a little tart, but had enough sugar to break the pucker and bring on the smile. I hope you enjoy this simple, yet delicious treat from one of our esteemed viewers.
P.S. Try it ala mode.

Total time 1 hour 25 minutes

INGREDIENTS
Crust
1 1/4 cup flour
1/4 t salt
3 T shortening
4 T very cold butter pieces
4-5 T ice water
Filling
8 cups sliced apples (use different types for best pie)
3/4 c brown sugar

1/2 t nutmeg
2 T lemon juice
3 T flour
Topping
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup flour
8 T butter pieces
1 brown paper bag for baking

Prepare crust first. Combine flour, salt, shortening and butter. Combine the butter and shortening w flour until just barely combines. Don’t overwork it! Use your fingers or forks or a bad try blender. Once combined gradually add minimum anoint of water just until crust holds together. Place crust in plastic wrap and form into a disc. Refrigerate for 30 minutes while making filling.
Peel, core and slice apples. Place into a large bowl with all filling ingredients except the flour. Microwave for 5 minutes and then stir in the flour. Roll out your crust. Flour your working surface and rolling pin and roll crust to 12 inch circle and gently place in USA pie pan. Place filling in crust. In a medium bowl combine the flour and sugar for the topping. Work the butter in to resemble large sand pieces and place on top of pie filling. Place a brown paper bag on a USA Pan half sheet pan. Insert entire pie into bag and close with stapler or paper clips. Anything oven sage! Or, just fold bag closed. Place into a preheated 425 degree oven for one hour. Once done, use care to cut open the bag and remove the pie. It will be hot! Enjoy!
Paper Bag Apple Pie Recipe
This is my great grandmother’s pie recipe. True story: when I met the Golden Ratio’s dad I made him this pie. He loved it and I have made him a pie every week for the last 6 years and counting because pie = love.
For the pie filling
6 apples
½ c sugar
2 T flour
1 T cinnamon
For the topping
½ c butter
½ c flour
½ c sugar
Cut the apples into chunks or thin slices. Mix well with the sugar, flour, and cinnamon. Heap these into a pie crust. Arrange them so hopefully nothing falls out. It will look super heaped up, but the apples cook down, so don’t worry.
For the toping, combine all the ingredients. If you have a stand mixer or food processor, you can combine it that way. If not, cut in the butter with a pastry blender or two knives until mixture is coarse, like cornmeal. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over top of pie and pat it down to keep it in place.
Slide pie into a brown paper grocery bag. Fold the open end under. Put the whole bag in the oven. Bake at 425 for 90 minutes. You might want to place a cookie sheet on a rack under the bag to catch drips. The bag might get a little brown, but I promise it won’t catch on fire (but be smart – don’t let it touch the heating elements obviously).
When it's done, very carefully, remove the bag from the oven. Don’t tilt it or the delicious pie juices will spill out. Split the bag open and let the pie cool.

So have you ever baked an apple pie in a paper bag? I know: it sound crazy, but man! - this method makes the best apple pie you've ever tasted. And you don't need any special equipment other than a grocery bag. The bag traps moisture, keeps your pie nice and juicy, and prevents the pie from over-browning. Talk about great pie theater, too: your friends and family won't believe it when they see you pull this out of the oven.
