Delicious Apple Pie

This apple pie features a flaky crust and a filling bursting with juicy apples, cinnamon, and just the right amount of sugar.

Ingredients

To prepare this delightful apple pie, you will need the following ingredients:

2 pie crusts (store-bought or homemade)
6-8 medium apples (such as Granny Smith or Honeycrisp)
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 tablespoon lemon juice
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon butter, cut into small pieces
1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Peel, core, and slice the apples into thin slices. Place them in a large mixing bowl.
Add the sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, lemon juice, and flour to the apples and gently toss to coat the apples evenly with the mixture.
Roll out one pie crust and fit it into a 9-inch pie dish. Pour the apple filling into the crust and dot with butter.
Roll out the second pie crust and place it over the filling. Seal the edges by crimping with your fingers or a fork. Cut slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.
Brush the top crust with the beaten egg to give it a nice golden color as it bakes.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling. If the edges brown too quickly, cover them with foil.
Remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool for at least an hour before slicing.

Once cooled, serve your apple pie with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for the perfect finishing touch. Enjoy this delightful dessert that brings smiles to everyone’s faces!
