Apple Slab Pie
A delightful twist on classic apple pie, apple slab pie combines the sweetness of ripe apples, the flakiness of a buttery crust, and a hint of cinnamon to create a mouthwatering dessert perfect for any occasion.
Ingredients
- 6 cups thinly sliced apples (a mix of sweet and tart varieties)
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 pre-made pie crusts or homemade pie crusts
- Salt, vanilla extract, or raisins (optional)
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, combine sliced apples, sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, and lemon juice.
- Roll out one pie crust and place it on the prepared baking sheet.
- Spoon the apple mixture onto the pie crust, spreading it out evenly.
- Roll out the second pie crust and place it over the apple filling. Trim any excess dough and crimp the edges to seal the pie.
- Make a few slits on the top crust to allow steam to escape during baking.
- Bake the apple slab pie for 45-50 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
- Allow the pie to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
