About 2 cups of slices in a bowl with 1 cup of water. Cover and heat for about 6-8 minutes. They will be done when you can put a fork in and they are soft but not mushy. Like a cooked potato. Repeat this process until all apples are precooked. Put in strainer and run cold water over so they stop cooking and set aside.

Bring it up the sides and trim at the top. You can either flute it or just trim at top. Custard: Beat 7 eggs and a can of evaporated milk together. Add 1/2 cup sugar and beat in with eggs an milk mixture. Place all the apple slices in a single layer side by side in dough lined pan. Pour the custard mixture over top.
