Classic Apple Pie Recipe

Ingredients:

• 1 double pie crust
• 6 cups thinly sliced, peeled apples (about 2.5 pounds)
• 3/4 cup white 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
• 1 tablespoon milk
• 1 tablespoon coarse sugar

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F(190°C).
2. Roll out the bottom crust and place it into a 9-inch pie dish.
3. In a large bowl, mix together the apple slices, sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Pour the mixture into the pie crust and dot with butter.
4. Roll out the top crust and place it over the apple mixture. Trim the excess dough from the edges and press to seal, then flute the edges. Cut several slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.
5. Brush the top crust with milk and sprinkle with coarse sugar.
6. Bake the pie for 45-55 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. Cool the pie completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving.
