Ingredients
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, melted
- 0.5 cup Milk
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 large Eggs, beaten
- 4 medium Apples (peeled, cored, and thinly sliced)
- 0.5 cup Brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch pie dish and set aside.
Step 2
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, combine the melted butter, milk, vanilla extract, and beaten eggs. Stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. The batter will be thick and somewhat sticky.
Step 4
Pour the batter into the prepared pie dish, spreading it evenly across the bottom and slightly up the sides using a spatula.
Step 5
Layer the sliced apples evenly over the batter, ensuring they cover the entire surface.
Step 6
In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the apples.
Step 7
Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 40 minutes, or until the edges of the crust are golden brown and the apples are tender.
Step 8
Allow the pie to cool for at least 15 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy plain or topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream!
