Bake:
Bake for 50–60 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. If the edges brown too quickly, cover them with foil halfway through baking.
Cool & Serve:
Let the pie cool for at least 1–2 hours before slicing. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
Tips for a Perfect, Melt-in-Your-Mouth Apple Pie
Use a mix of apples for balanced sweetness and texture. Granny Smith adds tartness; Honeycrisp or Fuji adds sweetness and softness.
Don’t skip the lemon juice—it brightens the flavor and helps preserve the color of the apples.
Chill your crust before baking for extra flakiness.
Letting the pie rest after baking helps the filling set and makes it easier to slice.
