Kitten’s Apple Pie

My signature apple pie and I don’t think you will  find a better pie than this one and it’s a snap to put together if using refrigerated crusts

See my no-fail buttery pie pastry posted HERE

Servings 6-8 (or one 9-inch pie)

Ingredients:

2 prepared pie crusts, to fit top and bottom of a 9-inch pie plate (or can use a 15-ounce package refrigerated pie crusts)

7 medium Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored and thinly sliced (or can use a mixture of Granny Smith and Braeburn apples)

1-1/2 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

1/2 cup white sugar

3/4 cup brown sugar

1/3 cup all-purpose flour

1-1/2 teaspoons cinnamon (you may reduce to 1 teaspoon)

1/2 teaspoon nutmeg

1-1/2 tablespoons hard butter, cut into small pieces

Instructions:

Fit 1 pastry into a 9-inch pie plate.

In a large bowl toss the sliced apples with fresh lemon juice.

In another bowl combine both sugars with flour, cinnamon and nutmeg; sprinkle over the sliced apples then toss to combine.

Spoon  apple mixture into the middle of the crust mounding fairly high in the center.

Sprinkle butter pieces over the top.

Top with remaining pie pastry.

Fold the edges under and crimp.

Cut slits in the top to allow steam to escape.

Place the pie plate on a baking sheet, then bake in a 450 degree F oven for 15 minutes, reduce the heat to 350 degree F and continue baking for another 35 minutes.
