Ingredients 

Pie Crust

  • 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup unsalted butter cold, cut into cubes
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ¼ cup ice water more if needed

Filling

  • 6 cups sliced apples peeled and cored
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 2 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Instructions 

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine flour and salt. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually add ice water, tossing with a fork until dough holds together when pressed. Divide dough in half. Shape each into a disk. Wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  3. On a lightly floured surface, roll out one portion of dough to fit a 9-inch pie dish. Transfer dough to pie dish. Trim even with edge. Add filling.
  4. In a large bowl, combine apples, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, flour, and lemon juice. Toss to coat. Spoon into crust.
  5. Roll out remaining dough to fit top of pie. Place over filling. Trim, seal, and flute edges. Cut slits in top. Bake for 45-50 minutes or until crust is golden brown and filling is bubbly. Cool on a wire rack.
