    To make this pie I used my recipe for Easy Homemade Pie Crust and Homemade Apple Pie Filling  they came together to make a great pie . My family loved it. Apple is one of my hubbies favorites. I used granny smith apples because I like the tart flavor , however you can use your own personal favorite.

    Slice of Apple Pie

    There is definitely something very satisfying about making a pie completely from scratch . Normally I would use canned filling or store bought crusts but this time I used the my homemade recipes. Feel free to use either or .  I used a pie filling some use the apples fresh and allow them to cook in the pie.

    Can I Use A Store Bought Pie Crust ?-

    If you don’t want to make a Easy Homemade Pie Crust a packaged pie crust will work just fine. Just brush the top with one egg mixed with 1 tablespoon of water and give it a little sprinkle of sugar and cinnamon on top .

    Should I Let The Pie Cool Before I Cut It ?

    If you wait until the pie is room temperature it will slice better, if you cut it well it is hot the filling will run out.

    Ingredients

    Easy Homemade Pie Crust

    • 2.5 cups All-Purpose Flour plus more for rolling
    • 1 cup Unsalted very cold Butter cubed
    • 1 teaspoon Salt
    • 2 teaspoons Sugar
    • 8-10 Tablespoons Ice Water

    Homemade Apple Pie Filling

    • 4 cups Apples peeled cored and chopped I used Granny Smith
    • 2 Tablespoons Lemon Juice
    • 2 cups Water
    • 1 cup Granulated Sugar
    • ¼ cup Corn Starch
    • 2 teaspoons Cinnamon
    • ¼ teaspoon Salt
    • ¼ teaspoon Nutmeg

    Instructions

    Pie Crust

    • Mix flour, sugar, and salt: Put flour, sugar, and salt into the bowl of a food processor and pulse 2-3 times to mix
    • Add butter, half at a time, pulsing several times after each addition: Add about half of the butter to the food processor and pulse several times. Then add the rest of the butter and pulse 6 to 8 times
    • Slowly add ice water and pulse until dough barely holds together, don,t add too much water
    • Empty dough onto flat surface - gather into a mound and divide into 2 mounds
    • Use your hands and knead each mound just enough to form each one into a disk. Do not over-knead! . You should just knead enough so that the dough holds together without cracks
    • Sprinkle each disc with a little flour, wrap each one in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least one hour
    • Remove the disc from refrigerator and let sit for 5-10 minutes
    • Roll out with a rolling pin on a lightly floured surface to a 11inch circle; about ⅛ of an inch thick. If sticky ,sprinkle with a little more flour
    • Pre-Heat Oven 375°
    • Fit into 10 inch pie pan or cut down to a 9 inch
    • Crimp edges around pie pan
    • Prick holes in crust bottom and sides with fork to keep from bubbling.
    • Fill Crust with Apple Pie Filling - I slice ½ a stick of butter and spread on top of apples (optional) cover with top crust - crimp edges
    • Beat Egg and tablespoon of water -brush on top crust sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar ,make slits in top crust for venting
    • Place Pie pan on a baking sheet and bake at 375 for 20 minutes ,reduce heat to 350 and bake additional 30-45 minutes -If edges start to get too brown cover with foil

    Homemade Apple Pie Filling

    • Place apple slices in bowl, toss in the lemon juice to prevent browning
    • In a saucepan, whisk together cornstarch and water until blended.
    • Add cinnamon, sugar and nutmeg. Whisk until blended.
    • Add Apples to mixture in pan
    • Cook on medium low until apples are soft -5-8 minutes
    • Spread into pie crust or put in refrigerator for later
