  7. Using foil, cover the edges of the pie crust.
  8. Bake for 45 minutes.
  9. Remove foil and bake another 25 minutes or until crust and crumb topping are browned and filling is bubbly.
  10. Cool and enjoy!

Notes

  • I like to use a combination of Granny Smith and Golden Delicious apples in apple pie!
  • You can partially blind bake the pie crust before filling so it doesn’t get soggy from the juices of the filing while baking. To do this, bake pie crust in 400 degree oven for about 10 minutes (you can use a pie shield and pie weights if desired).
  • Place the pie plate on the bottom rack of the oven closest to the heating element to ensure even cooking and a crisp bottom pie crust!
