Check out this drool-worthy apple pie filling that’ll make your taste buds do a happy dance!
Ingredients
Gather up these goodies because they’re the key to apple pie perfection:
- 6-8 cups of thinly sliced, peeled apples (about 6 medium apples, Granny Smith and Honeycrisp work wonders)
- 1 cup granulated sugar (or to taste, because we’re in charge here)
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice (because apples can be a bit too sweet sometimes)
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (yum, the aroma!)
- ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg (for that mysterious vibe)
- 3 tablespoons cornstarch (to thicken it up, just like your grandma’s hugs)
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter (because butter makes everything better)
Instructions
Now, let’s get down to business!
- Start off by preheating your oven to 425°F (220°C) because you want it hot enough to get those apples sizzling!
- In a large bowl, toss together the sliced apples, granulated sugar, lemon juice, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and cornstarch. Make sure every apple slice is coated like they just stepped into a warm apple hug!
- Let the apple mixture sit for about 15 minutes. This allows the flavors to blend together, just like your favorite playlist.
- Once your apples are ready, pour them into a pie crust (store-bought or homemade, we won’t judge). Dot the top with butter for that melty goodness!
- Cover the filling with a top crust, crimp the edges, and cut a few slits for steam to escape. Your pie needs to breathe, after all!
- Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling like a hot spring.
- Let it cool before serving, unless you’re a rebel and can’t resist the temptation!
And there you have it—a delectable, homemade apple pie filling that could make anyone’s day sweeter! Now, slice it up, pour some vanilla ice cream on top, and watch everyone smile (or maybe even fight over the last piece). Happy baking!
