This recipe is for my mom's tasty Dutch Apple Pie. I love making this for the holidays. It's easy to make and it has a wonderful flavor.

Number Of Ingredients 14

5 1/2 cups thinly sliced baking apples (I usually use jonathon)
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup butter or 1/3 cup margarine
1 graham cracker crust
1 egg, for coating

Steps:

  • Beat one egg and brush into the bottom and sides of the graham cracker pie crust. Cook the pie crust for 5 minutes in the oven at 375 degrees.
  • After removing the pie crust from the oven, combine all filling ingredients and spoon into the crust.
  • Mix all topping ingredients with a pastry cutter until blended well and crumbly. Top filled pie with topping and bake for 50 minutes at 375 degrees.
  • You can use either a regular pastry pie crust, or a graham cracker crust. I use a graham cracker crust because it gives the pie a sweeter, more flavorful taste. I always use a store bought graham cracker crust only because it's faster than making one, however, if you have a great homemade graham cracker crust recipe, the pie will present prettier in a nice pie dish. I usually buy the 9 ounce graham cracker crust. It's a little larger (and will usually be labeled with "2 extra servings" on the package) because by the time you get your topping on the pie it's pretty full.
  • If you would prefer to make this recipe gluten free, use a gluten free flour mixture in the filling and the topping mixes. For the crust substitute with either a gluten free pastry, or a gluten free graham cracker crust, or simply bake without the crust in a pan and top with some vanilla ice cream (Edy's Grand French Vanilla is gluten free).
  • Yum! Enjoy.
