Delicious apple pie that is bursting with flavor!
Servings: 8 people
Ingredients
- 7 apples - peeled, cored and thinly sliced granny smith apples hold up nicely and the tartness from them balances out the sweetness but you can use different varieties or a mix of sweet and tart apples.
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1/4 cup water
- 2 tablespoon cornstarch
- 2 tablespoon water
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 F. In a sauce pan add peeled, cored and sliced apples, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg and lemon juice and 1/4 cup water. Stir over medium heat until apples begin to soften, about 8 minutes. In a small bowl, combine the cornstarch and water and whisk into the mixture. When apple mixture has thickened slightly move to a raw pie dough that has been rolled out and placed into a pie dish. Cover with top with pie dough however desired then bake for 30 minutes or until pie crust is golden. Apple pie does need to set for at least a few hours, ideally a full day before cutting into it so it can set up and won't fall out of the crust when cut.
