White Mountain Apple Pie

7 apples
¼ tsp salt
¾ cup sugar
2 Tbsp molasses
Butter bits
Pie pastry for top only

Preheat oven to 450º.

By layers, fill a deep round dish solidly with sliced apples.

For 7 apples mix ¼ tsp salt with ¾ cup sugar and use to sprinkle over the layers of apple. When the dish is filled, pour 2 Tbsp molasses over the top and dot with butter bits.

Cover the dish and set on the stove, where the apples can heat through and soften, not boil, for 5 minutes. Remove cover and cover with plain pastry and bake for 40 minutes. Serve with whipped cream or ice cream.
