Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Pour the corn syrup into a small saucepan, and set over medium heat. Bring to a boil, and cook for about 10 minutes, or until it starts to turn golden. Stir in the walnuts, sugar and cinnamon until walnuts are well coated.
Place one of the pie crusts into a 9 inch deep dish pie plate. Pour the walnut mixture into the bottom of the crust. Top with apple pie filling, and then place the other crust over that. Crimp the edges to seal, and trim off any excess crust. Cut a few holes in the top for vents. Sprinkle some cinnamon sugar on top.
Bake for 30 minutes in the preheated oven, until the crust is crisp, and edges are browned.

"Not sure what I did wrong but followed the directions to a tee. When I put in the walnuts and sugar it instantly hardened. Thinking maybe baking would help, nope. Hard as a rock and you couldn't cu..." See moret through the pie. But, we just put the pie in the middle and ate from that. Had it worked it would have tasted good. My boyfriend called it cement pie. lol"
