  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.

2. In large bowl, toss together the sliced apples, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 cup flour, and 2 teaspoons of cinnamon. Pour into a 9-inch pie crust.

3. In medium bowl, use a pastry blender or your fingers to mix together the topping ingredients until it forms a crumbly consistency. Sprinkle evenly over top of pie.

4. Bake at 400 for 45-55 minutes until the pie crust and crumb topping are deep golden brown and filling begins to bubble.

Notes

Watch the pie toward the end of the baking time to ensure the filling doesn’t bubble over into your oven. You may wish to place a cookie sheet under the pie to prevent spills in your oven.
