You only need 7 ingredients and it's quick, easy, and the finished pie is absolutely delicious.
Servings:12 slices
Ingredients
- 8 large apples peeled, cored and sliced
- ½ cup unsalted butter
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- ¼ cup water
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup brown sugar
- 2 9-inch pie crusts
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F and grease a pie pan. Unroll the pie crust and press down into the pie pan. Press against the sides and the bottom.
- Add butter to a pan and melt it over low heat. Add flour and stir well to combine. Add sugars and water and bring to a boil. Simmer for a few minutes.
- Top the crust with apples, add flour sugar mixture on top. Cut the second pie crust into slices and top the pie with the slices.
- Bake for 15 minutes. Reduce the heat to 350°F and cook for 40-45 minutes more until the crust is golen brown. Serve and enjoy!
Notes
- Don’t skimp on the flour or you’ll have a watery sauce and your pie will have a soggy bottom!
- If you’re worried about the crust burning at the edges just add a little foil over it.
- Not doing a lattice design on top? Don’t forget to cut slits in the top layer of pastry so the steam has a way to escape.
- Add a warm earthy flavor by adding a pinch of apple pie spice or some ground cinnamon and nutmeg.
