Step-by-Step Instructions (With Grandma’s Secrets!)
. Prep the Crust
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
Unroll one pie crust into a 10×15-inch jelly roll pan (or baking sheet).
Patch any tears with extra dough—perfection not required!
2. Make the Apple Filling
Toss apple slices, sugars, lemon juice, spices, salt, and cornstarch in a bowl.
Let sit 10 mins (juices will release).
. Pro Tip: Sweeter apples = softer filling | Tart apples = firmer slices
3. Assemble & Bake
Pile apples onto crust, leaving a 1-inch border.
Top with second crust, crimping edges roughly (or fold under for rustic charm).
Cut slits to vent, brush with egg wash, and sprinkle with coarse sugar.
Bake 40-45 mins until golden and bubbly.
4. Serve & Watch It Vanish!
Cool 15 mins (or risk lava-hot apples!).
Slice into squares and serve with ice cream.
