How to Make Applesauce Pie

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine 2 cups applesauce, 1/2 cup raisins, and 1/2 cup packed brown sugar. Cook over medium-low heat for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened.
  2. Stir in 2 tablespoons of butter and a pinch of salt.
  3. Remove from heat and let cool completely.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs. Gently fold the eggs into the cooled applesauce mixture.
  5. Pour the applesauce filling into your prepared 9-inch pie crust.
  6. For the topping: In a separate bowl, combine 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and 1/2 cup (1 stick) softened unsalted butter. Cut the butter into the dry ingredients using a pastry blender or your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  7. Sprinkle the crumb topping evenly over the applesauce filling.
  8. Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 20 minutes.
  9. Reduce oven temperature to 350°F (175°C) and continue baking for another 20-25 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is set.
  10. Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy!
