Apple Crumb Pie is a tasty, simple dessert that everyone is positively raving over. A soft, flaky crust packed with sweet juicy cinnamon kissed apples with a delicious crumb coating over them all. It is the perfect apple pie to serve after every meal.
INGREDIENTS :
- (1) (9 inches) deep-dish pie crust
- 5 c of apples peeled, cored and thinly sliced
- ½ cup white sugar
- ¾ tsp ground cinnamon
- ⅓ cup white sugar
- ¾ cup all-purpose flour
- 6 tbsp butter
DIRECTIONS :
- Preheat oven 400 degrees F (200 degrees C.)
- Then arrange apple slices in unbaked pie shell. Mix 1/2 cup sugar and cinnamon; sprinkle over apples.
- Add and mix 1/3 cup sugar with flour, cut in butter until crumbly. Then spoon mixture over apples.
- Bake it for 40 minutes until apples are soft and the top is lightly brown in the preheated oven.
Notes:
- The trick to prevent a soggy pie is to cook the liquid properly down to a caramel before adding it back to the apples. After mixing and baking with apples, go for a thicker consistency where the water has mostly evaporated, and it will thin out a little.
- If you want a better apple flavor in your pie, you can have an extra apple.
- After baking, the butter will keep your crumble nice and crisp, don’t skimp on the ingredient. If your crumble sounds too dry and powdery, then mix in a tbsp of melted butter until you have nice little clumps. If it resulted in a big blob after mixing your crumble, then the butter may have been a little too warm. Transfer to the refrigerator for about five minutes, then use your hands or a fork to break down into crumbles.
