Ingredients
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 0.75 cup unsalted butter (cold)
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons water (ice-cold)
- 6 medium apples (firm varieties like Granny Smith or Honeycrisp)
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 0.5 cup brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 0.5 cup old-fashioned oats
- 0.5 cup all-purpose flour (for crumble)
- 0.5 cup brown sugar (for crumble)
- 0.25 cup unsalted butter (for crumble, softened)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
To make the pie crust, combine 1.5 cups all-purpose flour, 0.5 cup granulated sugar, and 0.25 teaspoon salt in a bowl.
Cut in 0.75 cup cold unsalted butter using a pastry cutter or fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Add 2 tablespoons ice-cold water gradually until the dough starts to hold together. Do not overwork the dough.
Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 15 minutes.
Peel, core, and slice the 6 apples into even slices.
Toss the apple slices in a large bowl with 2 tablespoons lemon juice to prevent browning.
Add 0.5 cup brown sugar, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, 0.25 teaspoon nutmeg, and 1 tablespoon cornstarch to the apples, mixing well to coat them evenly.
Roll out the pie dough on a lightly floured surface and line a 9-inch pie dish with it, trimming any excess.
Pour the apple mixture into the dough-lined pie dish, creating an even layer.
For the crumble topping, combine 0.5 cup old-fashioned oats, 0.5 cup all-purpose flour, 0.5 cup brown sugar, and 0.25 cup softened unsalted butter in a bowl.
Mix until the ingredients clump together and form a crumbly texture.
Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the apples.
Place the pie on a baking sheet to catch any possible overflow, and bake in the preheated oven for 50 minutes, or until the apples are tender and the topping is golden brown.
Let the pie cool on a wire rack for at least 30 minutes before slicing and serving.
