Equipment

  • 1 pie plate

Ingredients
  

  • 6 cups thinly sliced apples (Granny Smith or other tart variety)
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon I use Vietnamese
  • 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg I often substitute with allspice or cardomon
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 double-crust pie pastry I use Pilsbury or Tenderflake

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 425°F
  • In a large bowl, mix the sliced apples with sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, and lemon juice.
  • Roll out the bottom pie crust and place it in a 9-inch pan. Fill with the apple mixture.
  • Roll out the top crust and place it over the apples. Trim and crimp the edges to seal.
  • Cut a few small slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.
  • Bake for 45-50 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
  • Let cool before serving.

Notes

To serve it like at Murray's Restaurant, add a slice of aged cheddar cheese.
