Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 9-inch shell Graham cracker pie crust
- 3 ounces (1 small box) Apple-flavored Jell-O
- 1 cup Boiling water
- 1 cup Cold water
- 2 medium (peeled, cored, and thinly sliced) Apples
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 1 cup (optional, for topping) Whipped cream
Instructions
1. Prepare the apples by peeling, coring, and thinly slicing them. Toss the slices with the lemon juice to prevent browning, and set aside.
2. In a medium mixing bowl, dissolve the apple-flavored Jell-O powder in 1 cup of boiling water. Stir thoroughly until the powder has completely dissolved.
3. Add 1 cup of cold water to the Jell-O mixture and stir to combine. Let the mixture cool slightly for about 5-10 minutes, but do not allow it to set.
4. Arrange the apple slices evenly in the graham cracker pie crust.
5. Carefully pour the slightly cooled Jell-O mixture over the apples, ensuring they are fully covered. Allow the liquid to settle evenly in the crust.
6. Transfer the pie to the refrigerator and chill for at least 3 hours, or until the Jell-O has fully set.
7. Once set, slice the pie and serve chilled. Optionally, top each slice with a dollop of whipped cream for extra indulgence.
