Ingredients

• 6-8 medium-sized Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored, and sliced
• 3/4 cup granulated sugar
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 package store-bought pie crusts or homemade pie dough
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into small pieces

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. In a large bowl, combine the sliced apples, granulated sugar, flour, cinnamon, salt, and lemon juice. Toss until the apples are evenly coated.
3. Roll out one pie crust and carefully place it into a 9-inch pie dish.
4. Fill the pie crust with the apple mixture, piling it slightly higher in the center.
5. Dot the apples with butter pieces for extra richness.
6. Roll out the second pie crust and place it over the apples. Trim any excess crust and crimp the edges to seal the pie.
7. Make a few small slits on the top crust to allow steam to escape.
