Apple Pie is a must during the fall season and anytime of the year for my husband(his favorite dessert).

 

A deliciously filled apple pie with a double buttery crust. It’s the perfect pie to eat year round, but especially during autumn/fall when apples are in season. This Apple Pie recipe is a favorite! Can also be made gluten free and/or vegan.

APPLE PIE RECIPE

This apple pie recipe is a favorite in our house, it’s easy and delicious. 

It’s perfect for a crisp evening in fall or a cold evening in the winter. It makes a great dessert anytime of the year. 

Eat plain, add a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream. 

Use a homemade crust or a premade pie crust works just as great.

We are huge fans of sweets in our house, they are just so good and making/baking them just add to the goodness.

APPLE PIE INGREDIENTS & SUBSTITUTIONS

  • Apples
  • White Sugar – I’ve used both granulated sugar and cane sugar, both come out great
  • Corn Starch
  • Apple Pie Spice 
  • Lemon Juice
  • Butter
  • Pie Crust(double) – Homemade or store bought pie crust

Do I have to use corn starch? You can substitute the corn starch for all-purpose flour, the pie just comes out a tad bit more runny but still taste amazing.

Can I make these vegan? Yes, use a vegan butter. And find a vegan pie crust recipe or look for Pillsbury Pet-Ritz Frozen Deep Dish pie crust.

Can I made these gluten free? Yes, just make or buy a premade gluten free pie crust. 

What apple to use? We’ve made pie with just about every apple variety and even with a few different in one pie. The only apple NOT to use is Red Delicious, you’ll get a mushy and flavorless pie.

Looking for a good pie crust recipe? This Betty Crocker Pie Crust recipe is great! 

 

HOW TO MAKE AN APPLE PIE

Make or prepare pie crust accordingly. Pare and slice apples, place into a medium size bowl.

Preheat oven to 400Β°. Line pie pan with bottom pie crust.

In a small bowl mix sugar, corn starch and apple pie spice. Sprinkle it over apples and mix. Drizzle lemon juice over apples.

Add apple mixture into pie pan and dot with your butter.

Cover evenly with second pie crust. Make a couple slits on the top and seal the edges.

Cover the pie edges with aluminum foil, place pie pan on cookie sheet. And sprinkle the top with two teaspoons of sugar.

Bake on center rack for 45 minutes, remove foil and place back into the oven for another 10-15 minutes.

Allow to cool for at least 30 minutes, enjoy!

 

WHAT TO SERVE BEFORE APPLE PIE?

  • Sausage Stuffed Acorn Squash
  • The Best Meatloaf
  • Instant Pot Beef & Bean Stew
  • Instant Pot Calico Beans

HELPFUL KITCHEN TOOLS:

  • An Apple Peeler & Corer would make it very easy, as well as an apple slicer
  • A regular peeler works wonderfully too and is what I use to make this every time
  • Mixing bowls – I absolutely love these mixing bowls
  • These are great pie pans if you don’t already have some
  • You can also find pie crust protector shields that help prevent the edges from burning
