Not much is better than homeade Apple Pie. For any event, this recipe always seems to come out on top for its gooey filling and crumbly top.
Ingredients
SERVINGS: 10 Serving(s)
- 1 9-inch unbaked pie crust
- 3/4 cup flour
- 2 tablespoons cornmeal
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 6 tablespoons cold butter
- 6 large tart apples, peeled and thinly sliced
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 3 tablespoons flour
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- freshly grated nutmeg
Preparation
- Place pie pastry in 9-inch plate. Heat oven to 450°F.
- To make streusal, place flour, cornmeal, sugars, and cinnamon in a bowl (or if you already used the processor for a pie crust, it will do a quick job of the strusel, too). Add cold butter in small pieces and work with hands until coarse crumbs form.
- In a large bowl, combine apples, lemon juice, sugar, flour, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Pile apple mixture into (uncooked) pie crust (store bought or homemade). Pat streusel over apples. Bake 15 minutes. Reduce oven to 375°F and bake 45 minutes or until pie is bubbly and apples are tender. Allow to cool.
