This is a follow-up/extension of a thread re Favorite Apple Dish(es). I've made a few apple crostadas (one w/ fig jam), but the crust has turned out a little soggy. I saved this easy version to make when the weather gets a little cooler. If a member tries it before I do, & is more digitally inclined than I, please share your pic.

Apple Walnut Crostada
Serving Size : 8
1 refrigerated/ready-made pie crust
Cooking spray
6 baking apples, peeled, cored, and sliced (6 to 7)
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup chopped walnuts
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 Dash vanilla extract
2 Tbsp. butter -- cut into pieces
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Coat a baking sheet with cooking spray and set aside.
Place apples, sugar, walnuts, flour and vanilla extract in a large mixing bowl and toss well.
Transfer pie crust to baking sheet. Spoon apple mixture into center of pie crust and fold up sides of pastry to capture apples and juices. Dot with butter.
