Ingredients
  

  • 6 cups Slices apples I used McIntosh, You can use more apples if you want a fuller pie.
  • 1 tbsp Lemon juice
  • ½ cup Packed light brown sugar
  • ½ tbsp Cinnamon
  • ¼ tsp Ground ginger
  • ¼ tsp Ground nutmeg
  • 1 tbsp Melted butter
  • 3 tbsp Flour

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 375° and prepare a pie crust in a 9" baking dish and press sides if desired to create the "pretty" pie crust edges.
  • In a small bowl combine the brown sugar, flour, and spices.
  • In a large bowl, combine sliced apples with lemon juice.
  • Pour sugar mixture over the apples and mix until all are coated evenly.
  • Pour apples into the pie, spread evenly
  • OPTIONAL: Place second pie crust over top if desired, press sides down and poke holes.
    Brush the top with melted butter or an egg white wash.
  • If skipping the "optional" step, brush the tops of the apples and the crust edges with melted butter and place in oven.
  • Bake for 15 minutes ON THE BOTTOM RACK
  • After 15 minutes, reduce the oven temp WITHOUT OPENING THE OVEN to 300° and bake for an additional 25-30 minutes.
    You want to watch your crust and make sure it's not burning. You can also cover the crust with aluminum foil to prevent this.
