How to Make Apple Pecan Pie

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Filling: In a large bowl, gently toss together 4 cups peeled and sliced apples and 2 tablespoons of apple juice.
  3. In the same bowl, stir in ¾ cup granulated sugar, ¼ cup all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg, and ¼ teaspoon salt. Mix well to coat the apples evenly. Add ½ cup (1 stick) melted unsalted butter and stir to combine.
  4. Sprinkle 1 cup pecan halves evenly over the bottom of a 9-inch prepared pie crust.
  5. Pour the apple mixture over the pecans in the pie crust.
  6. Topping: In a separate bowl, combine ½ cup packed light brown sugar, 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour, and ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon. Mix in ¼ cup (½ stick) melted unsalted butter and ⅓ cup chopped pecans.
  7. Sprinkle the pecan topping evenly over the apple filling.
  8. Bake for 15 minutes at 425°F (220°C).
  9. Reduce oven temperature to 375°F (190°C) and bake for an additional 25-30 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.
  10. Let cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
