How to Make Apple Pie Baked In A Brown Paper Bag

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Peel, core, and slice 6 medium apples (about 6 cups sliced).
  3. In a large bowl, toss apples with 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 cup packed brown sugar, 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg, and 1/4 teaspoon ground allspice.
  4. Pour apple mixture into a 9-inch pie crust (homemade or store-bought).
  5. Dot the top of the filling with 2 tablespoons of butter.
  6. Place the pie crust in a heavy-duty brown paper lunch bag. Fold the top of the bag over twice to seal, leaving some room for steam to escape.
  7. Place the bag on a baking sheet to catch any spills.
  8. Bake for 135 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. If the crust starts to brown too quickly, loosely tent the bag with foil.
  9. Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
