Prep Time30 mins
Cook Time55 mins
Total Time1 hr 25 mins
Course: Dessert
Cuisine: American
Servings: 8
Author: The Frugal Girls

Ingredients

  • 6 medium Granny Smith Apples peeled and thinly sliced {approx. 6 cups}
  • 2 tsp. Fresh-Squeezed Lemon Juice
  • 1 cup Granulated {White} Sugar
  • 3 tbsp. All-Purpose Flour
  • 1 tsp. Ground Cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp. Ground Nutmeg
  • 1/4 tsp. Salt
  • 1/8 tsp. Allspice
  • Two 9″ Pie Crusts {Homemade or Pillsbury Refrigerated Crusts}
  • Egg Wash: 1 Large Egg beaten well + 1 tbsp. Milk + a pinch of Salt
  • Pie Crust Topping: 1.5 tsp. Turbinado Sugar {Sugar in the Raw}

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  • Carefully place one pie crust in 9″ pie dish. Trim and fold edges over, and crimp, pinch, or flute around the entire edge.
  • Peel and thinly slice your apples. I use this Johnny Apple Peeler to make the job fast and easy.
  • In large bowl, mix together apple slices and lemon juice until apples are well coated.
  • Then over apples, add Sugar, Flour, Cinnamon, Nutmeg, Salt, and Allspice to same bowl, and stir until all has been well combined.
  • Transfer apple mixture into pie crust you’ve rolled out in your pie dish.
  • Now transfer your pie to the refrigerator… it’s time to work on your lattice!
  • Designing the pie crust on top is always fun! Make sure to leave adequate holes or gaps for venting. I like to roll it out on a cutting board and slice a variety of sizes of dough strips, using my pizza cutter. Then you can weave in a lattice pattern. You can even take 3 long and narrow slices of pie crust dough and braid it to add some additional pretty texture. Or cut out little leaves or acorns with these Pastry Stampers to add some fun designs to the crust! The options are limitless!
  • Once you’ve laid out your top crust, it’s time for the egg wash.
  • Beat 1 Large Egg well, then stir in 1 tbsp. Milk + a pinch of salt. Dip your pastry brush in the egg mixture, and brush over the entire top and outer edges of your pie crust.
  • Once you’ve finished your Egg Wash, evenly sprinkle the top of the crust with Turbinado Sugar.
  • Place pie on cookie sheet {it will catch any potential spills that bubble ever}
  • Bake at 400 degrees for 15 minutes.
  • After 15 minutes, add your Pie Crust Shield to keep the edges from burning, adjust temperature to 350 degrees, and bake for 40 – 45 more minutes, or until done.
  • Transfer to a wire rack and cool for a minimum of 3 hours prior to serving. I like to wait even longer to allow all that apple gooey goodness plenty of time to solidify.
  • Slice and serve up with big scoops of vanilla ice cream. ENJOY!
