Description

This easy Dutch Apple Pie recipe features a homemade pie crust, perfectly spiced apple filling, and an irresistible crumb topping. The perfect addition to any holiday dessert table!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pie crust (my recipe will create enough for two crusts)
  • 56 cups Granny Smith Apples, peeled and sliced into 1/4– inch pieces
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1/3 cup light brown sugar
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup flour
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Topping

  • 1 cup flour, plus 2 tablespoons
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/3 cup light brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup cold butter, cubed

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F. Adjust your oven rack to the lowest position.
  2. Roll out your pie dough to a 12- inch circle and fit it into a 9- inch pie plate, crimping the edges. Place the pie plate in the refrigerator while you do the next steps.
  3. In a large bowl combine the apples, lemon juice, brown sugar, granulated sugar, flour, and cinnamon. Stir to coat evenly. Set aside.
  4. To prepare the topping, combine the flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and butter in a medium bowl. Using a pastry cutter or fork blend the mixture together until coarse crumbs form. Using your hands squeeze the mixture together until all the butter is absorbed and your crumb topping comes together.
  5. Remove the pie plate from the refrigerator and spread the apples evenly into the crust, discarding any liquid that has been released from the apples. Sprinkle the crumb topping evenly on the apples.
  6. Bake for 50-60 minutes, until the apple mixture is bubbly and the crumb and crust is golden. If the crust and/or crumb begins to brown too quickly cover the pie loosely with foil and/or pie shield. Make sure to bake the pie long enough that the mixture is bubbly to ensure that the bottom crust is cooked. Since you are baking the apples raw they will release juice which can make the bottom crust slightly soggy. Positioning the rack to the lowest position and baking the pie long enough will make sure that the bottom crust bakes properly.
  7. Remove the pie from the oven when done and allow to come to room temperature before slicing.

Notes

Store airtight at room temperature for up to 2 days, or in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

*The recipe for my homemade pie crust makes enough for 2 dough rounds, however this recipe is for one pie. So you will only need one round for this recipe. You can cut the dough recipe in half, or divide it and save dough for later!
