Ingredients

• 6 pieces Granny Smith apples
• 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
• 0.25 cup Brown sugar, packed
• 0.25 cup All-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter, diced
• 2 sheets Refrigerated pie crusts
• 1 piece Egg
• 1 tablespoon Milk

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

Step 2

Peel, core, and slice the Granny Smith apples into 1/4-inch thick slices. Place them in a large mixing bowl.

Step 3

In a small bowl, combine granulated sugar, brown sugar, all-purpose flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Mix well.

Step 4

Pour the sugar mixture over the sliced apples and toss until the apples are evenly coated.

Step 5

Roll out one of the pie crusts and fit it into a 9-inch pie dish, making sure to press it gently against the edges of the dish.

Step 6

Fill the pie crust with the apple mixture, spreading it out evenly.

Step 7

Dot the apples with the diced unsalted butter, distributing it evenly.

Step 8

Roll out the second pie crust and place it over the filling. Trim any excess crust and crimp the edges together to seal.

Step 9

Cut 4-5 small slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape during baking.

Step 10

In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and milk to create an egg wash. Brush the egg wash evenly over the top crust for a golden finish.

Step 11

Place the pie on a baking sheet to catch any spills and bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.

Step 12

Let the pie cool on a wire rack for at least 2 hours before slicing and serving.
