1 unbaked pie shell (9" size)
1 package (6 ounce size) butterscotch chips

1/4 cup all-purpose flour

directions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

In a large bowl, combine lemon juice and apples, tossing until well coated. Stir in sugar, flour, cinnamon and salt. Mix well.

Turn into 9" unbaked pie shell. Cover edges with aluminum foil. Bake at 375 degrees F for 20 minutes.

TOPPING: Melt over hot (not boiling) water the butterscotch-flavored morsels and butter, stirring until smooth. Remove from heat and stir in flour and salt. Blend until mixture forms large crumbs.

Remove foil from pie. Crumb mixture over top of hot apples. Bake at 375 degrees F 25 minutes longer.
