Apple pie that melts in your mouth! For 5 minutes of work! Apple pie recipe

Assembling the Pie

Rolling Out the Dough

1. Roll Bottom Crust: On a floured surface, roll out one disk of dough into a circle about 12 inches in diameter. Transfer it to a 9-inch pie dish, pressing it gently into the bottom and sides.
2. Add Filling: Pour the apple filling into the prepared crust, spreading it out evenly.

Topping Options

Double Crust

1. Roll Top Crust: Roll out the second disk of dough into a circle. Place it over the apples.
2. Seal and Vent: Trim any excess dough, then pinch the edges together to seal. Cut a few small slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.

Lattice Crust

1. Create Strips: Roll out the second disk of dough and cut it into strips about 1/2 inch wide.
2. Weave Lattice: Lay half of the strips over the pie in one direction, then weave the remaining strips over and under the first set to create a lattice pattern.

Streusel Topping

1. Make Streusel: Combine flour, sugar, and butter until crumbly.
2. Sprinkle on Top: Spread the streusel mixture evenly over the apple filling.

Baking the Pie

Baking Instructions

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
2. Bake the Pie: Place the pie on a baking sheet to catch any drips. Bake for 20-25 minutes, then reduce the temperature to 375°F (190°C) and bake for an additional 30-35 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.

Cooling and Serving

1. Cool the Pie: Allow the pie to cool for at least 2 hours before slicing. This helps the filling to set.
2. Serve: Serve the pie warm or at room temperature, optionally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
