Apple Crisp Pie

1 pkg. pie crust mix or pastry for 1 crust pie
6 cups sliced, pared apples
3/4 cup sugar
1/8 tsp. salt
2 tbsp. flour
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1 cup bran flakes
1/4 cup flaked coconut
1/3 cup chopped pecans
1/4 cup brown sugar, firmly packed
1/4 cup melted butter or margarine

Prepare pastry according to recipe or package directions. Roll out to a 12-inch circle, then line a 9-inch pie plate. Make a high fluted edge with fingers. Heat oven to 400 degrees. Combine apples, sugar, salt, flour and cinnamon. Turn into prepared pie shell. Cut a circle of foil just large enough to cover filling but not pastry edge and fit over just the filling.

Bake at 400 degrees for 30 minutes.

Mix bran flakes, coconut, pecans, brown sugar and butter or margarine. Sprinkle over top of hot pie. Bake 10 to 15 minutes longer until pastry is golden brown and filling is bubbly. Topping may have to be protected from over-browning with foil during last few minutes of baking. Serves 6 to 8.
