Caramel Apple Crumb Pie
Caramel Apple Crumb Pie features a tender pie crust filled with thinly sliced apples tossed in lemon juice, flour, brown sugar, and warming spices like cinnamon and nutmeg. The topping combines oats, flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and cold cubed butter baked until golden and crisp. Drizzling caramel sauce on top adds a rich, sweet finish. This pie balances tartness and sweetness with a crunchy oat layer, making it a suitable dessert for gatherings or seasonal occasions.

Instructions
To Make the Apple Pie
- Preheat oven to 375° F. Place the pie dough into a 9 inch glass or ceramic pie plate. Create a fluted crust with your fingers or crimp the edges with a fork. Refrigerate until the rest of the pie is prepped.
- Wash, peel, and thinly slice the apples, placing them in a large mixing bowl and tossing them in the lemon juice. Add the flour, sugar, spices, salt and vanilla to the apples and stir together until they are completely coated.
- In a separate bowl stir together all of the oat topping ingredients except the cubed butter. Once the topping ingredients are combined add in the cold cubed butter and work it into the mixture with your hands or a pastry blender until crumbles form.
- Pour the apples into the unbaked prepared pie crust. Top the apple filling with the oat topping. Bake the pie for 45-55 minutes or until the filling is bubbly and the crust is golden brown. If the crust and topping start to get too brown, place a piece of foil loosely over the top. I usually do this about halfway through the baking time.
