Description

This Dutch apple pie has a buttery crumble topping and is baked in parchment paper for a deliciously crispy crust with tender apple filling.

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

Directions

1 Gather all ingredients. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
2 Arrange pastry in the bottom of a 9-inch pie pan. Place apples in crust.
3 Mix 1/2 cup sugar, 2 tablespoons flour, and cinnamon together in a bowl; pour over apples in crust. Sprinkle lemon juice on top.
4 To make the crumble topping: Place 1/2 cup sugar and 1/2 cup flour in a bowl. Cut in cold butter with 2 knives or pastry blender until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs; sprinkle crumble mixture evenly over apples.
5 Take two 15-inch pieces of parchment paper and enclose pie; fold edges up 3 times. Place on a baking sheet.
6 Bake in the preheated oven, without opening the parchment, for 1 hour. Remove from oven, split parchment open, and cool pie on a wire rack.
7 Serve warm, or at room temperature.
