Apple Pie Ingredients
Method
Apple Pie Directions
- 1
Make the Pie Crust
In a large bowl, combine flour and salt. Cut in butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in ice water, a tablespoon at a time, until the dough comes together. Divide the dough in half, shape into discs, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.

Prepare the Filling
Peel, core, and slice the Granny Smith apples. In a large bowl, toss the apples with granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and a pinch of salt. Let it sit for about 15 minutes to release juices.

Assemble the Pie
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Roll out one disc of dough on a floured surface to fit a 9-inch pie dish. Place it in the dish and fill with the apple mixture. Roll out the second disc and place it over the filling. Seal and flute the edges, then cut slits in the top crust for steam to escape.

Bake the Pie
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Reduce the temperature to 350°F (175°C) and continue baking for 35-45 minutes, or until the apples are tender and the crust is golden brown.
