3/4 Cup crushed Nilla Wafers(about 24
Wafers)
1/4 Cup firmly packed brown sugar
1/4 Cup butter, melted
1 ready -to- use pie crust
4 oz. cream cheese, softened
2 large baking apples, peeled, sliced

1/4 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Mix wafer
crumbs, brown sugar and butter until well blended, set aside.
Place pie crust in a greased pie pan.
Spread cream cheese carefully on bottom of crust, sprinkle with half of the crumb mixture. Set aside. Combine fruit in large
bowl and add granulated sugar, flour and cinnamon; toss to coat well. Spoon over crumb layer in pie pan; sprinkle with remaining

cream after it has cooled.
