How to Make Apple Pie:
Prepare your pie crust like this
SMELL this now, its getting there! Go ahead and eat a coated apple slice!
After you’ve sealed them together (see left side of pic), fold the edges over and crimp them with your fingers or use a fork, whichever you prefer (see right side of pic).
Melt some butter and brush it over the crust then sprinkle a bit of sugar on top to make it even prettier!
Cover pie in foil and cut and peel back the center so mainly the outer edges are covered. Return to oven and bake for an additional 45-55 minutes.
Enjoy your delicious apple pie! We suggest eating with a scoop of your favorite vanilla ice cream 🙂
Ingredients
- 1 Package Pilsbury Pie Crusts
- 9-10 apples two different kinds, one Granny Smith
- 1/4 Cup Apple Juice
- 2 Tablespoons Lemon Juice
- 3/4 Cup Sugar
- 1/4 Cup Corn Starch
- dash of salt
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla
- 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon allspice
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425. Roll one pie crust out into pie plate. Peel and chip apples into large mixing bowl. In separate bowl, combine all dry ingredients and stir to blend. Combine all liquid ingredients in another bowl and stir to blend. Pour dry and liquid over apples and stir well.
- Place in oven and bake 15 minutes. Remove from oven and cover entire pie with foil. Cut slits in center of foil and peel back so mainly the outer edge is covered (to prevent it from burning). Reduce heat to 375 and continue baking for 45-55 minutes or until golden.
I’ve been cooking for over 40 years and never really made an apple pie that I was completely satisfied with. Since it is one of my husband very favorites I do keep trying, though.
Well yesterday I tried this recipe and it is INCREDIBLE! It doesn’t look that different from others I’ve made but it sure tastes different! My poor husband couldn’t do anything but moan while he ate the first piece! And that was even without ice cream!
Thank you, Christy, for a recipe that is going up on the inside of a kitchen cabinet door! (That limited space is reserved for only the very best.)
Socalmal: What a wonderful comment to receive! You have made my day, thank you so much!
You know, I find that even with a small family, I have to make two of these as well!
I understand your dilemma completely and cannot tell you how thrilled I am to hear that your family likes this pie as much as mine!
Thank you so much for letting me know!
Stay tuned for apple week! A new apple recipe each day for a whole week! I’ve been working on the tutorials for some time now!
Thank you for this delicious apple pie recipe, my whole family loves it so much that from now on I will have to make two or more because they go too quickly and I like to share with the elderly neighbor when I can.
Made two today – making three or four next time!
