Description

This Easy Apple Pie recipe features a flaky double-crust pastry filled with thinly sliced apples layered with cinnamon and sugar, baked to golden perfection. It’s a classic, comforting dessert perfect for fall or any time you crave a warm, fruity treat.

Ingredients

Units Scale

Pie Crust

  • 1 (14.1 ounce) package pastry for a 9-inch double-crust pie

Filling

  • 0.75 cup white sugar, or more to taste
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 6 cups thinly sliced apples
  • 1 tablespoon butter

Egg Wash

  • 1 egg
  • 1 tablespoon water

Instructions

  1. Prepare Ingredients: Gather all your ingredients to ensure you have everything ready before starting. Preheat your oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C) for optimal baking temperature.
  2. Line Pie Dish: Place one pastry crust into a 9-inch pie dish, ensuring it fits snugly. Set the second crust aside for the top layer.
  3. Mix Sugar and Cinnamon: In a small bowl, combine 3/4 cup white sugar with 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon. Adjust the amount of sugar if your apples are particularly tart.
  4. Layer Apples and Cinnamon Sugar: Arrange thinly sliced apples in layers inside the pie crust. Sprinkle a portion of the cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly over each layer to enhance the flavor.
  5. Add Butter: Dot the top layer of apple slices with small pieces of 1 tablespoon butter to add richness and moisture during baking.
  6. Cover with Top Crust: Place the second pastry crust over the filled pie dish, then flute or crimp the edges to seal the pie to prevent the filling from leaking during baking.
  7. Apply Egg Wash: Beat 1 egg with 1 tablespoon of water to create an egg wash. Brush this over the top crust for a glossy, golden finish once baked. Cut several slits in the crust to allow steam to escape and prevent the crust from becoming soggy.
  8. Bake Initially at High Temperature: Place the pie on the lowest rack in the preheated oven and bake at 450 degrees F for 10 minutes to set the crust and begin caramelizing the sugars.
  9. Reduce Heat and Continue Baking: Lower the oven temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and continue baking for an additional 30 to 35 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the apple filling bubbles through the slits.
  10. Cool and Serve: Remove the pie from the oven. Allow it to cool slightly before serving warm or enjoy it cooled, according to preference.

Notes

  • This easy apple pie is perfect for fall, featuring simple layering of apples and cinnamon sugar inside a double crust.
  • Adjust the sugar amount if using tart apples to balance sweetness.
  • Ensure slits are cut on the top crust to allow steam to escape, preventing soggy crust.
  • Using an egg wash gives the crust a beautiful golden and shiny appearance.
  • Serving warm enhances the flavors, but it can also be enjoyed cold.
