What’s better than a slice of freshly baked apple pie? Nothing. That’s right, folks. Nothing! And lucky for us, I’ve got an easy and delicious recipe that will make your taste buds dance.

First up, let’s take a look at what we’ll need:

Ingredients:

  • 1 double pie crust
  • 6 cups thinly sliced, peeled tart apples (such as Granny Smith)
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into small pieces

Now that we’ve got everything we need, let’s get started!

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 450°F. Place pie crusts in a 9-inch pie plate according to package directions.
  2. In a large bowl, mix together the apples, sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Pour the mixture into the pie crust.
  3. Dot the top of the apple mixture with small pieces of butter.
  4. Top with the other pie crust. Cut slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.
  5. Bake for 10 minutes at 450°F. Reduce the oven temperature to 350°F and continue to bake for an additional 45 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
  6. Let cool for at least 30 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy!

And that’s it! Easy, right? But before we part ways, let’s take a moment to appreciate the beauty of this dessert.
