Ingredients

• 1 9-inch crust Pie crust (store-bought or homemade)
• 6 medium Granny Smith apples
• 0.75 cups Granulated sugar
• 0.5 cups Brown sugar, packed
• 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour (for the filling)
• 1.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoons Ground nutmeg
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 8 tablespoons Unsalted butter, cold and diced (for crumb topping)
• 1 cup All-purpose flour (for crumb topping)
• 0.75 cups Brown sugar, packed (for crumb topping)
• 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon (for crumb topping)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Place your pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish and crimp the edges as desired. Set aside.

Step 3

Peel, core, and slice the Granny Smith apples into thin slices. Place them into a large mixing bowl.

Step 4

Add granulated sugar, brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt to the apples. Toss until the apples are evenly coated. Set aside.

Step 5

Prepare the crumb topping by combining the flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon in a medium bowl. Add the cold, diced butter and use your hands or a pastry cutter to work the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 6

Pour the apple mixture into the prepared pie crust, spreading it out evenly.

Step 7

Sprinkle the crumb topping evenly over the apples, ensuring the entire pie is covered.

Step 8

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

Step 9

Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool for at least 2 hours before serving to allow the filling to set.

Step 10

Serve the pie warm or at room temperature, optionally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
