Ingredients
- Pie Crust: 1 pre-made pie crust (store-bought or homemade)
- Apple Filling:
- 6 cups peeled and sliced apples (Granny Smith or Honeycrisp)
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- ¼ tsp nutmeg
- 2 tbsp flour
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- Crumble Topping:
- ½ cup flour
- ½ cup old-fashioned oats
- ⅓ cup brown sugar
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- ½ tsp cinnamon
- ¼ tsp salt
- 6 tbsp unsalted butter, cold and cubed
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Prepare the crust: Roll out the pie crust and fit it into a 9-inch pie dish. Trim and crimp the edges. Set aside.
- Make the apple filling: In a large bowl, toss the sliced apples with sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, flour, and lemon juice until well coated. Transfer the mixture into the prepared pie crust.
- Prepare the crumble topping: In a medium bowl, combine flour, oats, brown sugar, granulated sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Cut in the cold butter with a pastry cutter or fork until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Add the topping: Sprinkle the crumble mixture evenly over the apples.
- Bake for 45-50 minutes, until the apples are tender and the topping is golden and crisp. If the crust or topping starts to brown too quickly, cover the pie loosely with foil.
- Cool for at least 30 minutes before serving.
Notes
- Use a combination of tart and sweet apples for balanced flavor (e.g., Granny Smith and Honeycrisp).
- Serve warm with vanilla ice cream for the ultimate dessert experience.
