How to Make All American Apple Pie
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large bowl, combine the sliced apples, sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, melted butter, and lemon juice. Toss gently to coat.
- Pour the apple mixture into the unbaked pie crust.
- Dot the top of the filling with a few pats of butter (optional).
- Cover the pie with the top crust, crimping the edges to seal. Cut several slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.
- Brush the top crust with the beaten egg and sprinkle with coarse sugar (optional).
- Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. If the crust starts to brown too quickly, cover the edges with aluminum foil.
- Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
