More blackberries, less fat, less sugar, easy to make, more yummy for your tummy! The pie has more blackberries than most people would use, but I like blackberries more than I like apples and I don't like apple pie actually! This makes it gooood! This is a healthy, yummy piece of pie and the only mistake you can make is over cooking it!

Time 1h

Yield 1 Pie, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

1 pie shell, frozen
3 large apples (the softer the better, I like the red Gala Apples)
4 cups blackberries
2 ounces coconut sugar crystals (regular granulated sugar works too)
1 tablespoon lemon juice
water
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup flour
4 tablespoons butter

Steps:

Pre-heat oven to 375 and bake pie shell for 10 minutes (or until lightly brown).
Mix apples, sugar and water (enough water to cover the apples!) into a pot and simmer until apples are soft & you can fork though it like butter, 6-7minutes [if you like a crunchier apple only simmer for 2-3 minutes] Set aside and let cool a bit.
Now, in a separate bowl mix melted butter, brown sugar and flour with your hands! Mix until it is crumb-like.
Ok, now it's time to assemble the pie! First layer apples down, then blackberries, then apples, then blackberries! Sprinkle the lemon juice over the top. Lastly, with your hand, sprinkle the crumb topping over the top -try to get it nice and thick and try to cover as much as possible.
Bake for 45minutes and let cool for 15-20 minutes
Refrigerate after it cools and heat individual slices in microwave for 15 seconds to enjoy later. Cool wip on top is yummy too!

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

1 9 inch unbaked pie shell
7 medium granny smith apples, cored, peeled and sliced 1/4 inch
1/2 c sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
3/4 c flour
1/2 c sugar
1/3 cup butter, sliced

Steps:

1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Fill the unbaked crust with apples.
2. Combine 1/2 cup sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl and sprinkle on top of apples slices in pie shell.
3. Cut butter into the remaining 1/2 cup sugar and flour, which have been mixed together until coarse crumbs form. Sprinkle on top of pie. Bake 40-45 minutes, or until apples are tender when pierced with a fork.

Tips:

Use a variety of apples. This will give your pie a more complex flavor and texture. Some good choices include Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Pink Lady apples.
Peel and slice the apples thinly. This will help them to cook evenly.
Don't overfill the pie crust. Leave about 1/2 inch of space around the edges so that the filling can bubble up during baking.
Dot the top of the filling with butter before adding the crumb topping. This will help the topping to brown and add flavor to the pie.
Bake the pie until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling. This should take about 45 minutes to 1 hour.
Let the pie cool for at least 2 hours before serving. This will allow the filling to set and the flavors to develop.

Conclusion:

Apple crumb pie is a classic dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It's easy to make and always a hit with family and friends. So next time you're looking for a delicious and comforting dessert, give this apple crumb pie recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
