Begin by preparing the pie crust: In a large mixing bowl, combine 2.5 cups of all-purpose flour and 1 teaspoon of salt. Add the chilled and cubed 1 cup of unsalted butter.
Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Gradually add 8 tablespoons of ice water, stirring with a fork until the dough begins to come together. Avoid overmixing.
Divide the dough into two equal portions, flatten into discs, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
For the apple filling, place the 6 peeled, cored, and thinly sliced Granny Smith apples in a large bowl. Toss with 2 tablespoons of lemon juice to prevent browning.
In a small bowl, mix 2 tablespoons of cornstarch with 3 tablespoons of water to form a slurry, then add to the apple mixture.
Add 1/4 cup of sugar-free granulated sweetener, 1.5 teaspoons of cinnamon, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and a pinch of nutmeg. Mix well to evenly coat the apples.
Roll out one disc of chilled dough on a lightly floured surface to fit your pie plate. Transfer the dough to the pie plate and trim the edges.
Fill the crust with the apple mixture, spreading it evenly.
Roll out the second disc of dough and place it over the pie. Trim any excess and crimp the edges to seal. Cut a few slits on top to allow steam to escape.
Place the pie on a baking sheet to catch any drips and bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Then, reduce the temperature to 350°F (175°C) and continue baking for 45 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and apples are tender.
Once baked, remove from the oven and let the pie cool on a wire rack for at least an hour before slicing.
Serve each slice of sugar-free classic apple pie slightly warm or at room temperature, and enjoy!
