Ingredients

For the crust

For the apple pie filling

  • 1 medium apple cubed
  • cup sugar
  • teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¼ tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • tablespoon lemon juice
  • ½ tablespoon butter at room temperatura
  • teaspoon cinnamon
  • smidgen salt

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375ºF.
  • Add all of the pie filling ingredients (cubed apple, sugar, vanilla, flour, lemon juice, butter, cinnamon, salt) to a small mixing bowl and toss to combine.
  • If using store-bought pie crust, cut ½ off and save the rest for another preparation. Cut the dough into 2 pieces, and roll on a floured surface. You should have top and bottom pie crusts.
  • Pierce the dough base and press it into the pie dish, but leave about ½-inch all the way around hanging.
  • Add the apple pie mixture into the crust, place the top crust and tuck in with the extra dough from the pie dish.
  • Brush with a little butter and bake for 15 to 20 minutes, until the top of the pie is golden brown.

Notes

For this recipe, you will want to use a firmer tart apple so it doesn’t turn to mush when baked. A Granny Smith apple is a great option.
Pre-baking the crust will help to ensure that your crust is nice and crispy. Simply pre-bake the crust for about 5 minutes before adding in the filling.
When it comes to the filling, less is more. So don't overfill it or it can ooze out during baking.
Lightly brush on a mixture of whisked egg and water on top of the crust dough before baking for a shiny brown finish.
