Description

This cast-iron skillet apple pie recipe is easy to prepare using refrigerated pie crust, Granny Smith apples, cinnamon, and a buttery brown sugar base.

Ingredients

1/2 cup butter
1 cup brown sugar
2 refrigerated 9-inch pie crusts, divided
5 Granny Smith apples, peeled and sliced
1 cup white sugar
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
2 teaspoons all-purpose flour

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place butter in a large cast-iron skillet; place in oven while preheating until melted, about 5 minutes.
2 Stir brown sugar into melted butter in the skillet; return to oven until bubbling, about 5 minutes.
3 Gently place 1 pie crust on top of brown sugar mixture, without pressing down; arrange apple slices on top of crust.
4 Combine white sugar, cinnamon, and flour in a bowl; sprinkle over apple slices. Place remaining 1 pie crust over apple slices; cut slits in top crust for ventilation. Seal top and bottom crusts together.
5 Bake in the preheated oven until top crust is lightly browned, about 45 minutes.
