Today, we are excited to share two delightful apple pie recipes that will surely satisfy your sweet cravings. Both these recipes are simple and easy to follow, with the additional benefit of using minimal ingredients.

Apple Crumble Pie

This Apple Crumble Pie recipe is the perfect blend of sweet and savory flavors. The crust is buttery and flaky, the apples are soft and tender, and the crumble topping is wonderfully crisp. Follow the step-by-step instructions below to create this delicious dessert.

Ingredients:

• 1¾ cup all-purpose flour
• ½ cup unsalted butter
• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 5 tablespoons cold water
• 6 Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored, and sliced
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 1 cup brown sugar
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• ½ cup unsalted butter

Instructions:

1. In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, butter, sugar, and salt, and mix until crumbly. Add cold water gradually, and mix until the dough forms into large clumps.
2. Roll out ¾ of the dough, and transfer it to a 9-inch pie dish. Trim the edges of the crust, and prick the bottom of the crust with a fork.
3. In a medium mixing bowl, combine the apples, lemon juice, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Transfer the mixture to the pie shell.
4. In a separate mixing bowl, combine the brown sugar, flour, and butter, and mix until crumbly. Sprinkle the mixture over the apples.
5. Roll out the remaining dough, and cut it into long strips. Lay the strips over the apples in a lattice pattern. Trim and fold the edges of the crust.
6. Bake the pie for 50-60 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. Allow the pie to cool for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
