Directions
Preheat the oven to 375 F. Spray a 9-inch pie pan with nonstick
cooking spray.
In a large bowl, toss the apples with the lemon juice. In a small
bowl, combine the sugar, Butter Buds, Sweet'N Low, flour, cinnamon
and allspice. Add to the apples and toss to coat. Lightly spray one
sheet of phyllo dough with nonstick cooking spray. Fold in half and
spray again. Place in the pie pan with one edge hanging over the pan.
Repeat the process with the remaining 3 sheets of dough, overlapping
in the pan to cover the bottom completely. Spoon the apple mixture
into the pan. Fold the edges of the dough over to cover the apples.
Spray with nonstick cooking spray. Bake 35 minutes, or until the
dough is crisp and the apples are tender when pierced with a sharp
knife. Cool slightly before serving.
Serve with nonfat frozen vanilla yogurt, if desired.
Variation: Seven cups of sliced fresh peaches or pears, or fresh
blueberries, may be substituted for the apples. (Makes 1 9-inch pie,

The History of Recipes
It is quite feasible to prove the history of transcribed cooking instructions back into ancient history, in fact as far into history as the Egyptians, and maybe further still. Having said that, generally, these early records were just basic pictorial, hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for preparing meals.
In fact, the most ancient recipe found, according to historians is a series of stone tablets in Sumerian which show the preparation of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as having made people feel blissful and exhilarated. Later on, we have some books from the 14th Century - one book called `Forme of Cury`, and another, similary named `Curye on Inglish`. Amusingly, they have no connection with the curry that appears on menues today, but rather accounts of the types of meals eaten by the rich and wealthy people of the period. For the centuries that followed, the rich families of Europe tried to offer the most extravagent banquests, and as a consequence, the best cooks and their recipes were at a premium. Even so, it was during the 19th century that formal cookery and recipe publications rose to prominence. Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Merritt Farmer in the USA, dedicated their lives to collating, verifying, and writing down popular recipes of the day. The arrival of television brought us celebrity TV chefs and the demand for the spin-off recipe books. Which pretty much brings us up to date and the invention of computers and the internet, permitting us all to search through thousands of recipes like the ones you can find on our web site. |
