Yield::1 (9-inch) pie
Ingredients
1 (14.1 ounce) package pastry for a double-crust 9-inch pie
7 cups peeled, cored and sliced apples
1 cup white sugar
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon salt
⅛ teaspoon ground nutmeg
2 tablespoons butter
Directions
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a 9-inch pie plate with bottom crust.
Combine apples, sugar, flour, cinnamon, salt, and nutmeg in a bowl. Place mixture into the prepared pie plate. Dot with butter. Cover with top crust and seal. Cut holes in top crust to allow venting.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes.
Reduce the oven temperature to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C) and bake until crust is golden brown and apples are tender, 40 for 50 minutes. Cool and serve.
