Apple Pie for Hubby 11/11/17

Isn't it so pretty!



We always just use the Pillsbury Pie Crust from the refrigerator section and the recipe is on the box. But I use a Pie Spice I have from Penzeys and more cinnamon. 

I peel the apples with something like THIS
Red Enameled Cast Iron Apple Peeler, Slicer and Corer
Makes it much easier- it peels and cores the apple.



Ingredients

Crust

1
box Pillsbury™ refrigerated pie crusts, softened as directed on box

Filling*

6
cups thinly sliced, peeled apples (6 medium)
3/4
cup sugar
2
tablespoons all-purpose flour
3/4
teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4
teaspoon salt
1/8
teaspoon ground nutmeg
1
tablespoon lemon juice

Steps



  • 1
    Heat oven to 425°F. Place 1 pie crust in ungreased 9-inch glass pie plate. Press firmly against side and bottom.
  • 2
    In large bowl, gently mix filling ingredients; spoon into crust-lined pie plate. Top with second crust. Wrap excess top crust under bottom crust edge, pressing edges together to seal; flute. Cut slits or shapes in several places in top crust.
  • 3
    Bake 40 to 45 minutes or until apples are tender and crust is golden brown. Cover edge of crust with 2- to 3-inch wide strips of foil after first 15 to 20 minutes of baking to prevent excessive browning. Cool on cooling rack at least 2 hours before serving.
