Preheat oven to 425°F.
Prepare 9-inch pie plate by spraying with spray oil or wipe inside with a thin coat of olive or vegetable oil to help prevent sticking.
Roll out bottom pie crust in a circle to fit pie plate with enough dough to hang about 1 inch over plate edge.
Place sliced apples in a large mixing bowl.
in a small mixing bowl, whisk together the sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt.
Mix dry ingredients with the sliced apples.
Next, place apples in prepared pie plate. Sprinkle the cubed butter over the apples.
Next, roll out top crust to fit over pie plate and place it over the apples. Pinch the edges to seal the top and bottom crust together and to form a v-shaped decorative wave around the edge.
Using a knife, make 4 to 5 two inch slices in the top of the crust to allow venting while cooks.
Next, use a metal crust cover or crimp a 2-3inch strip of aluminum foil over the edge of the crust to form a ring. This will prevent excess browning. Remove last 15 minutes of cooking.
Place in oven and bake for 30 minutes. Remove foil or crust edge cover. Reduce heat to 375°F and bake for an additional 15 minutes or until crust is brown and juices bubble through the splits on the top of the crust.
Remove from oven and cool for 15-30 minutes before serving.
Enjoy!
