Old Fashioned Apple Pie

Old Fashioned Apple Pie Recipe

 

 

 



7-8 large apples (peeled, cored, diced)                               1 cup sugar
2 ½ tablespoons flour                                                          1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg                                                           Dash of salt
2½ tablespoons butter                                                         2 premade pie crusts (boxed, refrigerated)



1. Preheat oven to 400*
2. Stir sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt in a small bowl. Pour over apples mixing to make sure all are coated.
3. Unroll and place one of the pie crusts into a pie pan.
4. Fill the pie crust with the apples. Arrange the apples into a small mound with the center being  slightly taller than the outsides.
5. Cut butter into small pieces and place evenly over the apple cubes.
6. Roll out the second pie crust and place on top of the apples and squeeze the top crust and the bottom crust together at the edge to seal the pie. Then make slits on the top of the pie to allow for steam to escape. (Like example on bottom- happy fall yall) You can also try a lattice pie (example below) or one where you use a cookie cutter and cut pieces out and arrange on the top of the pie (example above)
7. Cover the edges of the pie with aluminum foil so that it will not brown to fast (make sure to not cover the whole pie).
8. Bake for about 1 hour. Remove the foil 10 minutes prior to removing the pie from the oven.
