Yield 1 9-inch pie

Number Of Ingredients 9

Your own crust in a deep-dish pan. I use frozen crust, thawed
About 2 1/2 lb. apples--see intro
2/3 cup sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch
3/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon allspice (or the same amount of combination nutmeg & cloves)
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 1/2 tablespoons butter or margarine

Steps:

  • Peel & core the apples & cut in half. Arrange most of them around the sides of the crust and in the middle--you'll have at least one left. They can stick up beyond the crust a little (they'll cook down), but not much. You might have to slice off the bottoms and use them to fill in. Sprinkle with the lemon juice. Combime all dry ingredients and pour about 1/3 of them over & around the apples. Cut the remaining apple into slices and fit the slices in between the halves so that you completely cover the crust and the pie is full of apples. I make some little pieces & stick them under the halves, in the core space. Pour the rest of the dry ingredients over & around the apples. Dot all apples with butter or margarine. Put on cookie sheet and bake in pre-heated 425 degree oven for 20 minutes. Turn oven down to 375 degrees, and baste the tops of the apples with the liquid in between them. Bake 20 more minutes at 375, baste again, and bake 20 more minutes. Check that apples are done (soft, not crunchy). Total baking time is an hour or a little more. When apples are done, take the pie out and immediately baste again. Top should look shiny. Cool.

This is apple pie perfection! The crust is flaky and buttery, the filling is perfectly sweet and tart, and the overall flavor is just incredible. I've made this pie several times now and it's always a hit.

This recipe is perfect for a busy weeknight dessert. It's quick and easy to make, and you can even use pre-made pie crust to save even more time. The pie bakes up beautifully and is always a crowd-pleaser.

This apple pie is the perfect fall treat! It's warm, comforting, and full of flavor. I love serving it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.

I love experimenting with different flavors, so I added a bit of cinnamon and nutmeg to the filling. I also used a mix of Granny Smith and Honeycrisp apples for a more complex flavor. The pie was a huge hit with my friends and family.

I made a few small changes to this recipe to make it a bit healthier. I used whole wheat flour for the crust and reduced the amount of sugar in the filling. It turned out great! The pie was still plenty sweet and delicious, but it felt a little bit l

This recipe reminds me of the apple pie my grandmother used to make. It's got that classic, old-fashioned flavor that I love. The crust is perfect and the filling is just the right amount of sweet and tart.
