Classic Apple Pie
This old-fashioned apple pie is easy to make, and will have grandmas asking you for the recipe! It has two buttery pie crusts filled with gooey cinnamon apples.
Ingredients
- 6 cups apples (6 medium peeled, cored, and cut into ¼ inch thick slices)
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- ¼ cup white sugar
- ½ cup packed brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1 (9-inch) double pie crust
- 2 tablespoons butter (cubed)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F and set the rack in the lower-middle position.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the apples, lemon juice, flour, sugars, and spices.
- Line a 9-inch pie plate with the bottom crust.
- Pour the apple mixture into the crust, and dot with the butter.
- Roll the second pie crust and place it on top of the apple mixture.
- Press the edges of both pie crusts together to seal and crimp the edges. Cut slits in the top of the pie to create some vents for steam to escape.
- Brush the crust with egg wash and sprinkle with additional sugar, if desired.
- Bake for 15 minutes. Reduce the heat to 375°F and continue baking for 35-45 minutes until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
- Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack before serving.
