There's nothing quite like a freshly baked apple pie, and making one from scratch is easier than you might think. Here's a recipe that yields a delicious, classic apple pie that's perfect for any occasion.

Ingredients:

  • 2 9-inch pie crusts
  • 6 cups thinly sliced apples (about 6 medium-sized apples)
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 egg white, beaten

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (218°C).
  2. Place the bottom crust in a 9-inch pie dish.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the sliced apples, sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Mix until the apples are coated evenly.
  4. Pour the apple mixture into the crust-lined dish. Dot the top with butter.
  5. Place the top crust on the pie and trim any excess dough. Crimp the edges of the crust together and cut a few slits in the top to allow steam to escape.
  6. Brush the top of the crust with beaten egg white.
  7. Bake for 15 minutes, then reduce the oven temperature to 375°F (190°C) and continue baking for an additional 45-50 minutes.
  8. Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool for at least 30 minutes before serving.
