I have got a very old cook book by the name "Apple Kitchen Cook Book ".The
edition from 1966,Its pages are falling a part and I have taped it over and
over again.There is one recipe that I can say it became like our family
recipe. We all love apple cakes or pies, So try it , and you will not be
sorry.

spring form pan with the pastry. Prick pastry with a fork , Put in the
refrigerator for 15 - 30 minutes.
