Equipment
- Deep dish pie plate
Ingredients
- 1 deep dish pie crust prepared but not baked
- 6 cups mixed variety baking apples sliced thin
- ½ cup brown sugar
- ¼ cup sugar
- 1 Tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp freshly ground nutmeg
- dash cloves
Topping:
- 2 Tablespoons brown sugar
- 2 Tablespoons flour

- Roll the crust and lay the crust in the deep dish pie pan, crimping the edges. Put the pie crust in the freezer for 20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, put the apples, cornstarch, sugars and spices into a bowl and let it macerate for at least 20 minutes. Take the crust out of the freezer and dust the bottom with a little flour. Spoon the apples into the crust, making sure to fill in the whole crust, not leaving big gaps of air.
- Mix topping together in a small bowl, then sprinkle over the top.
- Bake at 425-f degrees for 15 minutes, then reduce the oven temp to 375-f and bake an additional 30-35 minutes. Let the pie sit for at least two hours to let it set up.
