Ingredients

• 2 store-bought pie crusts
• 6 cups thinly sliced apples (about 6 medium apples)
• 3/4 cup sugar
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 egg, beaten
• 1/4 cup butter, melted

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. On a lightly floured surface, roll out one pie crust and place it in the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish. Trim the edges as needed.
3. In a large bowl, mix together the sliced apples, sugar, flour, cinnamon, and salt. Spread the mixture evenly over the pie crust in the baking dish.
4. Roll out the second pie crust and place it on top of the apple mixture. Trim the edges and crimp to seal the pie. Brush the top crust with the beaten egg and sprinkle with sugar, if desired.
5. Bake the pie for 45-50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. If the crust starts to get too dark, cover the edges with foil to prevent overbrowning.
6. Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool for at least 10 minutes before slicing and serving. Serve warm or at room temperature, with a drizzle of melted butter on top, if desired.

Tips

• For a crisp, crumbly topping, mix together 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup oats, and 1/2 cup packed brown sugar. Cut in 1/4 cup cold butter until the mixture is crumbly, then sprinkle it over the top of the pie before baking.
• For a smooth, creamy glaze, mix together 1 cup powdered sugar, 2 tablespoons milk, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Drizzle the glaze over the cooled pie before slicing and serving.
• Use a mix of tart and sweet apples for the best flavor.
• If you have time, pre-cook the apples before adding them to the pie crust to help prevent a soggy bottom crust.
• Make sure to pre-bake the crust before adding the filling to help prevent a soggy crust.
• Experiment with different types of crust, such as using a graham cracker crust or a crumb crust made with oats or nuts.
