How to Make Unbelievable Apple Pie

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a large mixing bowl, combine 6 cups peeled and sliced apples, 1 (3.4 ounce) box instant vanilla pudding mix, and 1/2 cup granulated sugar.
Toss gently to coat the apples evenly.
Pour the apple mixture into an unbaked 9-inch pie crust.
In a medium bowl, combine 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup rolled oats, 1/2 cup packed brown sugar, 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 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 dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Sprinkle the crumb topping evenly over the apple filling.
Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. If the crust starts browning too quickly, cover the edges with aluminum foil.
Let cool slightly before serving with a scoop of your favorite ice cream (butter pecan or rum raisin recommended!).
