Homemade Apple Pie
Here is a simple, delicious apple pie recipe that will make your guests want another slice.
Ingredients
- 2 uncooked pie shells for a bottom and top crust
- 6-7 apples peeled cored, and diced in ½ in. cubes
- 1 cup brown sugar
- ½ cup white sugar
- 1 stick unsalted butter
- 1 tsp salt
- 2 Tbsp cinnamon and any other spices you might prefer nutmeg, anise, cloves…
- 1 Tbs of flour or 1 tsp of starch
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Peel your apples and core them, saving peel and core if you’re planning on making apple cider vinegar.
- Chop your apples into small chunks (1/2 inch size) – the small size helps soak up all of those amazing flavors.
- Combine your sugars, salt, cinnamon, any additional spices, and flour.
- Cover the chopped apples with the sugar-spice-flour combination until all pieces are covered.
- Place coated apple bits in uncooked pie shell.
- Cut the stick of butter into small slivers and place them all over the top of the apple mixture in the shell.
- Cover the pie with a top crust. Be sure to crimp all along the edge of the pie to get a nice seal.
- As with any pie with a top crust, be sure to cut three to four 2-inch length vent holes in the middle of the top crust, so that the pie can ventilate and not leak out over the sides.
- Optionally, do a light egg wash on top to allow for pretty browning.
- Bake for 45 to 50 minutes. Remove from oven and allow juices to rest and disperse evenly for about 15 to 20 minutes before cutting.
