Apple Pie Recipe (+)

Directions

Preheat oven to 425Â°F.
Peel, core, and slice apples into 1/2" to 3/4" thick slices and place in a large bowl. Mix cinnamon, sugar, cornstarch, and nutmeg together and sprinkle over the apples.
Place 1 crust in bottom of pie tin so that it overlaps the edges of pie tin. Pour sliced apples mixture on crust. Dot apple mixture with butter (see TIP). Cover apples with remaining crust. Crimp the top crust to the bottom crust. Cut approximately 6 slits in top crust.
To prevent the crimped crust from overbrowning, cover crimped edges with aluminum foil. Place pie pan on baking sheet and place in oven. Bake 50-60 minutes or until crust is golden in color and apples are soft.
Serve warm or cold with your favorite topping.
TIP: An easy way to dot with butter is to grate cold butter on a cheese grater and sprinkle grated butter over pie filling.
