Apple Pie With Kuzu-apple Juice Glaze

We must never forget the thief of the cross (Lk. 23:39-43). He is often used as an encouraging example of a deathbed conversion, but certainly much more is involved. Instead of seizing his last opportunity to be saved, perhaps it was his first opportunity! And think of the courage needed to confess Christ openly before that derisive mob. However one interprets the passage, one thing is clear: where there is life, there is hope. We never know what transpires between the soul and God as that soul is about to enter eternity (Warren Wiersbe and David Wiersbe).

INGREDIENTS

4		Apples, thinly sliced
1 1/3	c	Apple juice
1/3	c	Raisins
1/2	t	Cinnamon, optional
1/2	t	Lemon juice
2	T	Kuzu
1 1/2	c	Whole wheat pastry flour
1/4	c	Corn oil
1	T	Barley malt
1/4	t	Sea salt

INSTRUCTIONS

Prepare crust first by mixing salt into the fresh pastry flour, then
adding oil until flour begins to bead. Sprinkle barley malt over this
mixture, slightly mix, and add enough water to make a thick ball of
dough. Quickly roll out between two sheets of wax paper or on a board
used for pie crusts. Cut into a circle which is about 9-inches wide
and place into lightly oiled glass or stainless steel pie pan. Pierce
the bottom of the pie crust and sides lightly with a fork so the  crust
will not puff up and let the liquid from the pie filling go  under it.
Meanwhile, combine apples, 1/3 cup of apple juice and raisins and
bring to a boil. Cover and simmer 15 minutes. Mix in cinnamon and
lemon juice. Remove from heat and allow to cool. Combine kuzu and
remaining 1 cup of apple juice, stir until dissolved, and bring to a
boil. Simmer about 1 minute or until transparent and thickened. Spoon
apples into crust and pour glaze over. Bake for about 40 minutes. ]]
