How to Make 1930's Apple And Nut Pie

  1. Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C).
  2. Fit one 9-inch pie crust into a pie plate. Prick the bottom with a fork and crimp the edges.
  3. Bake for 11-13 minutes, or until the crust is lightly golden brown. Remove from oven and let cool completely.
  4. While the crust bakes, prepare the filling: In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, 1 cup packed light brown sugar, and 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour until the mixture is crumbly.
  5. Stir in 1 cup chopped walnuts and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional).
  6. Peel, core, and thinly slice 6-8 medium apples (about 6 cups).
  7. Arrange half of the apple slices in the cooled pie crust.
  8. Sprinkle ¼ cup granulated sugar evenly over the apples.
  9. Top with the remaining apple slices and the walnut crumble mixture.
  10. Reduce oven temperature to 350°F (177°C).
  11. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the filling is bubbly and the crust is golden brown. If the crust starts to brown too quickly, cover the edges loosely with foil.
  12. Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy warm, with a scoop of vanilla ice cream!
