How to Make Depression Era Apple Candy Pie
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a medium-sized casserole dish, arrange the peeled, cored, and sliced apples.
- Pour lemon juice evenly over the apples.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, and cinnamon.
- Cut in the cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Stir in the chopped nuts (if using).
- Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the apples. Do not stir.
- Bake for 45 minutes at 350°F (175°C).
- Increase oven temperature to 450°F (232°C) and bake for another 5-10 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apples are tender.
- Let cool slightly before serving. Serve warm or cold, topped with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream, if desired.
