Cup of Yum
For the Streusel Topping:
- In a large bowl combine the flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon. place cubed cold butter into flour mixture. Using the tines of a fork (or a pastry cutter). Mix until pea-shape pieces of flour appear. Place in the refrigerator until ready to top pie.
For the Apple Pie Filling
- Combine the sugar, brown sugar, flour, and apple pie spice in a separate large bowl. Press out lumps and mix well.
- Peel, core, and slice the apples. Place in the cinnamon sugar mixture. Toss to coat all apples with mixture.

Notes
- ⅓
- Topping - You will have about ⅓ cup of topping left from this recipe.
- Apples - After you place all the apples in the pie crust you will notice a lot of juice in the bowl. This is water that was removed from the apples while sitting in the brown sugar mixture. Do not pour the extra sugar syrup on top of the pie. This will result in a soggy pie.
- Raisins - If you like raisins you can add a quarter cup to the apple mixture before filling the pie.
- Pie Crust - This recipe also works with a homemade pie crust. To save time, I always use a store bought.
