Apple Slab Pie
Description
The Apple Slab Pie recipe combines two standard pie crusts rolled out together to form a large rectangular base. The filling is two cans of pre-made apple pie filling poured onto the crust, then covered with a crumbly topping made from flour, packed brown sugar, nutmeg, cinnamon, and cold butter cut into small pieces. Baking at 400°F until the crust browns and the filling bubbles creates a dessert with a crisp, buttery crust and a softly spiced, sweet apple center. The topping adds a lightly crunchy texture contrasting the soft filling beneath. This slab design allows easy cutting and sharing directly from the sheet pan.
The flavor and texture balance between the spiced crumb topping and smooth apple filling creates a comforting dessert suitable for casual family meals or gatherings. Served warm or at room temperature, it pairs well with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream, though those are optional.
To store, cover loosely with plastic wrap or foil. It keeps well at room temperature for up to two days or refrigerated for up to five days, making it convenient for make-ahead occasions or leftover enjoyment.
