Easy Apple Pie Recipe With Premade Crust Recipes

APPLE PIE I

Steps:

• Prepare your pastry for a two crust pie. Wipe, quarter, core, peel, and slice apples; measure to 6 cups.
• Combine sugar and cinnamon. The amount of sugar used depends on how tart your apples are.
• Arrange apples in layers in pastry lined pie plate. Sprinkle each layer with sugar and cinnamon. Dot top layer with small pieces of butter or margarine. Cover with top crust.
• Place on lowest rack in oven preheated to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Bake for 10 minutes, then reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Bake for 30 to 35 minutes longer. Serve warm or cold.

EASY APPLE PIE RECIPE WITH PREMADE CRUST

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
• Line the bottom of your pie plate with one crust. Be sure to spread it out and then gently pinch the edges to crimp; set aside.
• Peel, slice apples almost to the core, and then slice them in thin slices. You do not want them thick or too chunky because they will not bake properly.
• Add apple slices to a large mixing bowl and toss with flour, both sugars, cinnamon, nutmeg, and lemon juice; combine.
• Carefully pour spiced apples over the bottom pie crust and spray them out evenly. They will look pretty high.
• Add butter cubes around the top layer of the pie.
• Unwrap the pie top crust and carefully cover the pie. Pinch pie edges to crimp and seal the pie.
• Brush on the mixed egg wash on all surfaces of the top pie. You will not use the whole egg.
• Using a BBQ skewer, poke 4 holes in your pie center for venting. You can also make 4 slits with a knife.
• Bake pie for 45 minutes with a pie shield to prevent the crust edges from over-browning.
• Allow pie to cool for at least 3 hours before cutting into it. Do not cover the pie when warm or the crust will get soggy. Only cover it once the pie is 100% cooled.
