Dive into the warm, comforting flavors of the "Impossibly Easy French Apple Pie," a delightful twist on the classic dessert that’s both effortless and irresistible. This recipe combines tender, spiced apples with a luscious custard-like batter made from Bisquick mix, creating a self-forming crust that eliminates the need for traditional pie dough. Topped with a caramelized layer of brown sugar and optional crunchy walnuts or pecans, this pie offers a perfect balance of sweetness and texture. With just 15 minutes of prep time and a golden, aromatic finish after baking, this dessert is ideal for busy weeknights or festive gatherings. Serve it warm with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a crowd-pleasing treat that tastes as though it came right out of a French patisserie.
Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C). Grease a 9-inch pie dish with butter or cooking spray.
In a medium-sized bowl, toss the sliced apples with the granulated sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Evenly spread the apple mixture into the prepared pie dish.
In another bowl, whisk together the melted butter, eggs, milk, Bisquick mix, and vanilla extract until smooth. Pour this batter over the apples in the pie dish.
In a small bowl, mix the brown sugar and chopped nuts (if using). Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the top of the batter.
Place the pie dish in the preheated oven and bake for 50 minutes, or until the top is golden and a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the pie cool for at least 10 minutes before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature, optionally paired with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.
