How to Make Crumb Topped Apple Pie

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar, 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon, 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg, 1/2 teaspoon ground allspice, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
  3. Add 6-8 medium apples (peeled, cored, and sliced) to the dry ingredients. Gently toss to coat the apples evenly.
  4. Pour the apple mixture into a 9-inch pie crust.
  5. **Make the crumb topping:** In a separate bowl, combine 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup brown sugar, 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces. Use a pastry blender or your fingers to cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  6. Sprinkle the crumb topping evenly over the apple filling.
  7. Bake for 50-70 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. If the crust starts to brown too quickly, cover the edges with foil.
  8. Let the pie cool completely on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy with a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream!
