Ingredients

Servings
  • 2 rounds pie crust homemade or storebought

Filling

  • 5 large granny smith apples about 3 ½ lbs.
  • 2 teaspoons freshly squeezed lemon juice 12g
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour 15g
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar 50g
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon 7g
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter chilled

Topping

  • 2 tablespoons half and half 28g
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon 3g
  • 1 teaspoon granulated sugar 6g

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F.
  2. Peel the apples to remove the peel. Slice the apples thinly with a sharp knife, and place them in a large bowl. There will be about 2 ½ lbs. of apples after they've been peeled and diced.
  3. Measure in the sugar, cinnamon, butter and lemon juice. Toss gently so the ingredients are evenly dispersed, and set aside. Give it a taste. Depending on the tartness of your apples, you might consider adding additional (2-3 tablespoons) sugar.
  4. Roll out the bottom pie crust and carefully place in the bottom of a deep-dish pie dish. Use a fork to poke a few holes in the bottom to let moisture escape as the pie bakes.
  5. Pour the apple filling into the crust.
  6. Roll out the other half of the pie crust on a floured surface. Carefully transfer it on top of the pie. Poke a few holes in this, as well. (You may do this with a fork or you may cut slits with a knife or do something fancier, like use a cookie cutter to remove part of the crust.)
  7. Brush the pie crust with half and half. Sprinkle on the additional cinnamon and granulated sugar.
  8. Place the pie dish on a rimmed sheet pan to prevent it dripping into the bottom of the oven.
  9. Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes or until the top is golden brown and juices are bubbling out of the crust.
  10. Enjoy warm or at room temperature with a scoop of vanilla ice cream!
