10 slices. Combine 1 cup sugar, 1 cup water, 1/2 teaspoon peppermint
extract, and few drops green food coloring in pan. Bring to boil and add
apple slices. Simmer until apples are transparent, about 5 minutes, turning
once. Cool in syrup. For a sophisticated touch, add 2 tablespoons creme de
menthe to the syrup as it cools. Drain apples on absorbent paper. Arrange
on pie.
