Just typing the name makes my mouth water! My husband LOVES apple pie and this is the easiest recipe. I got a lot of the Pillsbury Crusts on sale during the Triples sale a while back. I froze a bunch and then make a few pies. I think I might attempt another one this week, with ice cream…
Ingredients
- 2 Pie crusts (I just use refrigerated pie crust, be sure to let it sit out before you unroll it so it doesn’t break.)
- 6 cups apples (peeled, cored and thinly sliced) I recommend Granny Smith
- 1 Tablespoon lemon juice (sprinkle over apples after cut, to keep from browning)
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 2 Tablespoons flour
- 3/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Heat oven to 425°. Place 1 pie crust in ungreased 9-inch glass pie plate. Press firmly against side and bottom.
- In a large bowl, mix all ingredients; spoon into crust-lined pie plate. Top with second crust. Wrap excess top crust under bottom crust edge, pressing edges together to seal; flute. Cut 2 inch slits or shapes in several places in the top crust.
- Bake 40 to 45 minutes or until apples are tender and crust is golden brown.After the first 15 minutes, cover edge of crust with 2- to 3-inch wide strips of foil to prevent excessive browning. Cool on cooling rack at least 2 hours before serving.
