How to Make Apple Crumble Pie

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Prepare your favorite 9-inch pie crust and line a 9-inch pie plate.
  3. Peel, core, and slice 6 medium apples (about 6 cups). Arrange the apples in the prepared pie crust and drizzle with 1 tablespoon of lemon juice.
  4. In a medium bowl, combine 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup rolled oats, 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt.
  5. Cut in 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  6. Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the apples.
  7. Bake for 20 minutes at 425°F (220°C).
  8. Reduce oven temperature to 350°F (175°C) and continue baking for another 25-30 minutes, or until the apples are tender and the topping is golden brown.
  9. Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream!
