Homemade Apple Pie that is easy to make with simple ingredients.
Equipment
- One 9-inch pie plate
- Aluminum foil or pie crust edge cover
Ingredients
- Two 9-inch Pie crusts see this recipe for Homemade Sour Cream Pie Crust
- 6 cups apples, peeled, cored and sliced 5-6 large apples
- ¾ cup sugar
- ⅓ cup flour
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon nutmeg
- Pinch salt
- 2 tablespoons butter, cubed
Instructions
- 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!
