CRUNCHY CRUMB APPLE PIE

Crunchy Crumb Apple Pie image

This is a yummie alternative to an old favorite. The topping is sweet and the apples are a little tart. I posted this with a ready-to-bake pie crust, but I have found a homemade crust is always better! There are tons of apples in this pie but they cook down during baking. This is delicious topped with vanillia ice cream.

Cut in 1/8 inch-thick slices (or with a slicing disk of a food processor).

Layer apple slices in pie shell, mounding them higher in center.
Pat topping evenly over apples to form a top crust.

Reduce oven temp to 350 and bake 45 minutes longer or until a skewer meets some resistance when center of pie is pierced (apples will continue cooking after pie is removed from oven) and topping is golden brown.
