A simple, rustic dessert perfect for fall gatherings—or anytime you’re craving warm, cinnamon-spiced apples tucked between layers of flaky pie crust. Serve it warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for pure comfort.

📝 Ingredients

  • 6 cups peeled & sliced apples

  • 1 cup granulated sugar

  • 1 tbsp all-purpose flour

  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon

  • 1/4 tsp salt

  • 1 package refrigerated pie crusts (2 crusts)

  • 1 tbsp butter

  • 1 egg white

  • 1 tbsp water

👩‍🍳 Directions

  1. Preheat the Oven – Heat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.

  2. Prepare the Filling – In a large bowl, toss apples with sugar, flour, cinnamon, and salt until evenly coated.

  3. Assemble the Base – Roll out one pie crust and lay it on the prepared baking sheet. Spoon apple filling on top, leaving about a 1-inch border. Dot filling with butter.

  4. Add the Top Crust – Roll out the second pie crust and place it over the apples. Seal edges and crimp with a fork.

  5. Egg Wash & Vent – Whisk egg white and water in a small bowl. Brush over top crust. Cut a few small slits in the top to allow steam to escape.

  6. Bake the Pie – Bake 40–45 minutes, until crust is golden and filling is bubbling.

  7. Cool & Serve – Let cool slightly before slicing. Serve warm, optionally with vanilla ice cream.

💡 Variations & Tips

  • Spice It Up: Add a pinch of nutmeg or cloves to the apple mixture.

  • Caramel Twist: Drizzle caramel sauce over the filling before adding the top crust.

  • Different Fruits: Swap some apples for pears or berries for a seasonal mix.

  • Extra Shine: Sprinkle coarse sugar over the egg wash for sparkle and crunch.

Do you want me to also add a warm, seasonal blog-style intro for this one so it flows like a cozy fall story before the recipe? That would match the style I’ve been giving your other dishes.
