Almost Mock Apple Pie

I wanted to bake an apple pie
and only had two apples on hand.
Have you heard about making a mock
apple pie using Ritz crackers?
I used some crackers along with
a egg and some lemon zest to make
a pretty darn good tasting apple pie.
I left the top plain and served this
pie with dollops of whipped cream.

Ingredients:
1 9" prepared pie shell
2 baking apples, peeled and sliced
35 Ritz crackers, broken up
1 large egg
1/2 cup milk
zest of 1 lemon
1/3 cup white sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
whipped cream for topping

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
In a big bowl combine sugar, cinnamon,
apple slices, crackers and lemon zest.
In a bowl combine egg, milk and baking powder
add to cracker mixture and place filling in
pie crust in pan and fill with cracker mixture.
Pour filling in pie crust and bake for 1 hour,
remove and let cool before slicing and serving.
