Ingredients
8 Servings
- 2 tbsp butter
- 2 tsp cream of tartar
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
- 2 pie crusts
- 200 g Ritz crackers
- 400 g sugar
- 700 ml water
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 220°C (425°F).
Step 2
In a large saucepan, combine water, sugar, and cream of tartar. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes.
Step 3
Break the Ritz crackers roughly into the pie crust to resemble apple slices.
Step 4
Pour the syrup mixture over the crackers, then drizzle with lemon juice and dot with butter. Sprinkle with ground cinnamon.
Step 5
Place the second pie crust over the filling, seal the edges, and cut several slits on top to allow steam to escape.
Step 6
Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes or until the crust is golden brown.
Step 7
Let cool before serving.
