In a separate bowl, mix together flour,3/4 cup sugar and cinnamon.

Divide flour mixture into four parts.

Place 1/4 of apples onto the buttered baking pan, sprinkle some raisins and walnuts on top, then add 1/4 of the flour mixture.

Repeat this step until all flour mixture is used.

In a medium bowl, beat yolks with milk and pour evenly over apples.

To Make Meringue: In a large glass or metal mixing bowl, beat egg whites until foamy.

Gradually add 3 tablespoons sugar, continuing to beat until whites form stiff peaks.

Spread meringue over pie, covering completely.

Put pie back in oven for a 6 or 7 minutes, or until meringue is slightly golden.

Can be served warm or cold.
