Ingredients
 
 

For the apple pie filling:

  • 4 large apples peeled and sliced 1/4" thick
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup white sugar
  • 1/3 cup brown sugar
  • 3 tablespoons flour
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

For the Pie Crust

  • 1 1/4 cups flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup butter cold, cubed
  • 4-6 tablespoons ice cold water

Fro the crumb topping:

  • 1 cup all purpose flour
  • 1/3 cup brown sugar
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 6 tablespoons melted butter

Instructions
 

Make the filling:

  • To make the filling, add all of the filling ingredients in a bowl and toss together to coat the apples evenly. Set aside.

Make the pie crust:

  • Preheat oven to 425F. To make crust, add flour and salt in food processor. Add cold butter and pulse until it resembles coarse meal. Add 4 tablespoons of ice cold water and pulse a few times. The dough should be beginning to clump together. If it is not, add more water and pulse.
  • Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and form it into a disk. Wrap the disk in plastic wrap and set it in the fridge until you are ready to assemble your pie.

Make the crumb topping:

  • Whisk together the flour, sugars, cinnamon, and salt in a medium mixing bowl. Stir in the melted butter. You should end up with a sandy mixture with some clumps. Place the topping in the fridge until ready to use.

Assemble and bake your pie:

  • Place the pie dough disk on a lightly floured surface. Using a floured rolling pin, roll the pie dough disk to be slightly larger than your pie dish. Carefully transfer it onto the pie plate and trim the overhanging dough, leaving about an inch of overhang. Fold the overhang underneath and then crimp the edges of the pie crust.
  • Fill the pie crust with the apple filling.
  • Sprinkle the pie with the crumb topping mixture, ensuring the whole pie is covered.
  • Bake the pie for 15 minutes at 425F and then reduce temperature to 350. Bake for 40-50 more minutes or until the crust is a nice golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
  • Remove the pie and let it cool slightly before slicing to allow the filling to set. Slice and serve with a big scoop of vanilla ice cream!
