Ingredients:

  • 1 homemade or store-bought double pie crust recipe
  • 8 cups thinly sliced, peeled and cored granny smith apples (about 8 apples)
  • 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup packed light brown sugar

  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into pieces
  • 1 large egg, beaten
  • Coarse sugar, for sprinkling on top

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F.
  2. Roll out one of the pie crusts and fit it into a 9-inch pie dish. Trim the edges and refrigerate until ready to use.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, toss together the apples, lemon juice, sugars, spices, and salt until well combined.
  4. Pour the apple mixture into the pie crust and dot the top with butter. Place the second pie crust on top and trim the edges. Cut slits into the top crust to allow steam to escape.
  5. Brush the top crust with the beaten egg and sprinkle with coarse sugar.
  6. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling. If the edges of the crust start to darken too much, cover them with foil.
