Instructions

STEP 1: Heat oven to 425ºF. Make pie crusts as directed on box for Two-Crust Pie using 9-inch glass pie pan.
Sprinkle 1/4 cup finely chopped pecans in bottom of crust-lined pan.
STEP 2: In large bowl, mix sugar, flour, cinnamon and nutmeg. Gently stir in lemon juice and apples. Spoon into crust-lined pan.
Top with second crust; seal edge and flute. Cut slits or shapes in several places in top crust. If desired, brush crust with water; sprinkle lightly with sugar.
Cover edge of crust with 2 to 3 inch strip of foil to prevent excessive browning; remove foil during last 15 minutes of baking.
STEP 3: Bake 35 to 45 minutes or until apples are tender and crust is golden brown. Cool at least 1 hour before serving.
Serve warm pie with ice cream. Drizzle with caramel topping; sprinkle with chopped pecans.
