How to Make Apple Pie With A Twist

  1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine the peeled, cored, and sliced apples with the sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, and lemon juice. Toss gently to coat.
  3. Roll out the pie crust and place one half in a 9-inch pie plate. Trim and crimp the edges.
  4. Pour the apple filling into the pie crust.
  5. Roll out the second pie crust and place it over the filling. Crimp the edges to seal, and cut slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.
  6. Bake for 2 hours, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling and deeply caramelized. If the crust starts to brown too quickly, loosely cover the edges with foil.
  7. Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving. Enjoy! This pie is even better the next day!
