Buttery Dutch Apple Pie
Ingredients
  • 1 9-inch pie crust
  • 5 large Granny Smith apples - peeled, cored and sliced
  • 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup butter
Instructions
1
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit, or 220 degrees Celsius.
2
Arrange a sheet of pastry dough into the base of a 9-inch pie dish, ensuring it covers the entire surface.
3
Place sliced apples within the pastry-lined pie dish.
4
Combine 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour, and a pinch of cinnamon in a bowl. Pour this mixture evenly over the apples in the pie crust.
5
Sprinkle a small amount of lemon juice on top of the apple mixture to add flavor and moisture.
6
To create the crumble topping, combine 1/2 cup granulated sugar and 1/2 cup all-purpose flour in a separate bowl. Utilize two knives or a pastry blender to cut in cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse, uneven crumbs.
7
Sprinkle this crumble topping evenly over the apples in the pie crust.
8
Fold two large sheets of parchment paper around the pie, creating a seal by folding the edges up three times.
9
Position the sealed pie on a baking sheet.
10
Bake in the preheated oven, without opening the parchment paper, for 1 hour.
11
Remove the pie from the oven and carefully split the parchment paper open to reveal the finished pie.
12
Transfer the cooled pie to a wire rack and serve warm, or at room temperature.
