Ingredients
- 5 or 6 large Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored and sliced
- ½ lemon, zested and juiced
- 1 cup sugar
- ⅓ cup flour
- 1 tbsp arrowroot or cornstarch
- 1 pinch of salt
- 1 tsp allspice
- 3 tbsp butter
- 2 prepared pie crusts, or your favorite recipe
Directions
Preheat your oven to 350°F.
Put the apple slices in a large bowl and add the zest and the lemon juice.
Toss to coat the apples.
In a separate bowl, combine the sugar, flour, arrowroot, salt and allspice and mix thoroughly.
Add the sugar mixture to the apples and stir gently to coat.
Place the bottom crust into a 10-inch pie pan and top with apple mixture.
Dot the top of the apples with pea size pieces of the butter.
Top with second crust and crimp edges.
Make 4 small slices in the crust for steam to escape.
Wrap the edge of the pie with a piece of tin foil that just covers the crimped crust.
Place the pie on a cookie sheet.
I line mine with foil for easy clean up.
Bake for 45 minutes.
Remove foil and return to oven for about 30 minutes.
Juices will run out of the pie usually.
I wait until they show signs of thickening.
Place on a wire cooling rack for an hour or so before slicing.
