Walnut Streusel Apple Pie image

This is adapted from a recipe I tried last Thanksgiving AND Christmas from the Food Network; I used a store-bought crust and tripled the streusel (my favorite part ;).... It is a very easy, no-fuss pie; very pretty with it's browned nut topping and you don't have to worry about crimping or venting or any other crust issues! My family really loved it and I hope yours does too.

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 frozen pie crust
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar
2/3 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 cup chopped walnuts
3 lbs granny smith apples (approx. 6) or 3 lbs mixture of firm apples (approx. 6)
1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1/4 cup granulated sugar
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
3/4 teaspoon cinnamon

Steps:

  • To make topping: In a small bowl with your fingertips blend butter, brown sugar, cinnamon and flour until smooth and blend in nuts. Chill topping, covered.
  • To make filling: Peel and core apples. Cut apples into 1/2-inch wedges and in a bowl toss with remaining filling ingredients to coat.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F Unfold defrosted, store-bought dough into a well-seasoned 10-inch cast-iron skillet or 10-inch deep-dish (1 1/2-quart) pie plate, easing to fit.
  • Spoon filling into shell, bake pie in middle of oven for 1 hour (pie will not be completely cooked) and remove from oven.
  • Crumble topping over center of pie, breaking up any large chunks. Bake pie in middle of oven 30 minutes more, or until crust is golden and filling is bubbling.
  • Cool pie on a rack and serve warm or at room temperature with vanilla ice cream or Sour Cream Ice Cream (also on this site).
