- 1 medium bowl
- 1 spatula or spoon
- 1 pastry cutter or strong fork
- 1 wire cooling rack
Ingredients List
- 2 cans Apple pie filling 20 or 21-ounce
- 1 tsp apple pie spice
- 3/4 cup all purpose flour divided
- 3/4 cup light brown sugar packed
- 1/3 cup butter as cold as possible cut into tiny cubes
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 refrigerated pie crust softened at room temperature for at least 29 minutes
Instructions
Preheat Oven
- Preheat oven to 400℉.
- Place a sheet of aluminum foil on bottom rack of oven, directly under where you'll be placing the pie. This is to catch any juices that bubble from the pie while baking.
Prepare The Crust
- Place the crust in the pie plate, making sure the edge hangs evenly around the rim.
Prepare The Filling
- In a small bowl thoroughly mix the pie filling and 1 tsp of apple pie spice.
- Spoon or pour the apple mixture into the crust,
Prepare The Topping
- In medium bowl mix 3/4 cup flour, 3/4 cup brown sugar, and 1/2 tsp cinnamon.
- Add the butter cut into cubes as small as possible.
- With pasty cutter or fork, mix until the topping holds together and creates crumbles no larger than the size of a pea. Do not use your hands to mix or your body heat will melt the butter.
- Sprinkle the topping over the apples.
- Crimp the edges of the crust to form a scalloped edge around the top.
Bake
- Place in oven directly over the sheet of aluminum foil and bake at 400 ℉ for 45 - 50 minutes.
- Pie is done when crust is golden brown and the filling starts to bubble.
Cool Down
- Place on wire cooling rack and allow to cool for at least 3 hours.
