Catanzas Super Groovy Apple Crisp Pie

What you need: 

3 apples (Braeburns are what I used)
5 teaspoons margarine
2 cups of flour
1 cup of cinnamon
1 cup of cinnamon vegan graham crackers broken up into small pieces (some graham crackers have honey, so check the ingredients if you don't eat honey)
1/8 cup of water
1 tablespoon of brown sugar

What you do: 

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees (F)
Wash, peel, core, and chop the apples into small pieces (somewhere between slicing and dicing-just make sure the apple pieces are small and not too thick)
Combine the flour with 4 teaspoons of margerine. Add approximately 1/2 cup of the applesauce to the mixture. Add additional flour as needed to give the dough a dry enough consistency to press into a pie pan, then press it into a pie pan.
Place the apple pieces into the crust, and spoon the remaining apple-sauce over it.
Mix up the broken graham cracker bits with 1 tablespoon of brown vegan sugar, and 1 teaspoon of margerine.
Sprinkle this mixture on top of the apples. Sprinkle 1/8 cup of water over the top.
Bake for approximately 40 minutes. The apples will still have some kick to them (not too mushy), and the crust stays a bit gooey. It won't make the cover of Better Homes and Gardens, but it tastes great!

SO HOW'D IT GO?

Is this a typo?  one CUP of cinnamon?  Did you mean one Tablespoon?  It looks great other than that.
Thanks,

I haven't made this yet, but I think the author means 1 cup of vegan graham crackers that are cinnamon flavored.  :)
