Ingredients

• 2 medium (peeled, cored, and chopped) apples
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 1 large egg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 0.5 cup chopped nuts (such as pecans or walnuts)
• 1 tablespoon (for greasing the pan) butter

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8-inch pie pan or baking dish with 1 tablespoon of butter and set it aside.

Step 2

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the sugar, flour, baking powder, and salt until well combined.

Step 3

Add the chopped apples and nuts to the bowl with the dry ingredients. Toss them until they are evenly coated in the dry mixture.

Step 4

In a separate small bowl, beat the egg lightly. Stir in the vanilla extract.

Step 5

Pour the egg mixture into the apple and dry ingredient mixture. Use a spoon to gently stir everything together until just combined. The batter will be thick and sticky.

Step 6

Transfer the batter to the prepared pie pan, spreading it out evenly with the back of a spoon or spatula.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Step 8

Allow the Ozark Pie to cool slightly in the pan before serving. For best results, serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
