Apple Crumb Pie

Apple Crumb Pie features a homemade pie crust filled with thinly sliced apples tossed with lemon juice, sugar, and spices, topped with a crumbly mixture of flour, brown sugar, butter, cinnamon, and nutmeg. The crumb topping bakes to a warm golden brown, contrasting with tender, spiced apple filling beneath. The pie balances sweet and tart flavors with a satisfying textural combination of flaky crust and crunchy topping.
