THE BEST OF BOTH WORLDS: APPLE CRISP PIE 

Ingredients: – 1 pie crust (store-bought or homemade) – 5-6 medium-sized apples, peeled, cored, and thinly sliced (use a mix of sweet and tart varieties like Granny Smith and Honeycrisp)

– 1 tablespoon lemon juice – 1/2 cup granulated sugar – 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

– 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon – 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg – 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions: 1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the pie crust in a 9-inch pie dish, crimping the edges as desired. Set aside. 2. In a large bowl, toss the sliced apples with lemon juice to prevent browning.

In a separate bowl, mix together the granulated sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Add this mixture to the sliced apples and toss until the apples are evenly coated.

Arrange the coated apple slices in the prepared pie crust, filling it evenly.

In a mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt for the crisp topping. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

1. Sprinkle the crisp topping evenly over the apples in the pie crust. 2. Place the pie dish on a baking sheet to catch any drips, and then place it in the preheated oven.

1. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the apples are tender when pierced with a fork. 2. Once baked, remove the pie from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack for at least 30 minutes before serving.

1. Serve slices of the Apple Crisp Pie warm, optionally topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream. Enjoy the delightful combination of apple pie and crisp in every bite!
