EASY Apple Crisp Pie

EASY Apple Crisp Pie is a combination of our two favorite classics; Apple Pie and Apple Crisp, in one irresistible dessert!  Fresh apples, sugar, cinnamon, butter, and some flour along with pre-made pie crusts are the secret to making this apple crisp pie in minutes!

Apple pie is classic! But it’s even better when you can whip it up fresh and in your own kitchen. 

So when I went looking through our family’s recipes, I decided to try and combine two of our family’s favorites: apple pie and apple crisp!

And I made not one pie – but TWO apple crisp pies!

The outcome of making these two favorites desserts into one? 

Well, they turned out to be fantastic!  A delicious treat!

The pies were not too sweet, and they had the perfect balance of apples and cinnamon, topped with a buttery crumble to make them irresistible.

The only thing missing from this apple crisp pie was a tub of vanilla ice cream next to it.  YUM!

And, I have to tell you – I received rave reviews from family and friends, giving me the thumbs up!

 

How to Make this Easy Apple Crisp Pie? 

1.  First, simply chop or slice a few apples and toss them into a mixing bowl. 

2.  Then add sugar and cinnamon and mix to combine. 

3.  Next, fill a premade pie crust, or you can divide the mixture and fill two pie crusts.

4.  Finally, make the crumble mixture with 4 simple ingredients: cinnamon, butter,  brown sugar, and flour.  Then sprinkle the crumble mixture on top of each pie evenly.  And bake.

EASY PEASY!

Homemade Apple Desserts are wonderful! 

With a few minutes to prep and minutes to bake, you’ll have these two easy apple crisp pies as desserts in no time!

This recipe will make two 9-inch pies.  If you prefer to make one very thick pie, then this recipe will suffice. 

Don’t forget to serve some vanilla ice cream with each slice!  You’ll have everyone smiling!  What could be better?

 HERE’S a Great TIP! 

Keeping “frozen” pre-made pie crusts in the freezer is a smart thing to do.  They come in handy when you need them.

ENJOY!!

Ingredients Needed for EASY Apple Crisp Pie:

  • 4 or 5 cups (3 large or about 5 medium) Honey Crisp or Fuji apples- peeled, cord, and sliced

  • 1 tsp. ground cinnamon – divided
  • 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar

1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (188 C).  Place the oven rack in the center of the oven.

3. Meantime, in a large bowl, combine sliced apples with 1/2 teaspoon of ground cinnamon and 1/2 cup of granulated sugar. 

4. Toss apples until the mixture it’s well combined.  Transfer and divide the apple filling evenly into both pie crusts.

5. Using the same bowl, mix flour with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon and the brown sugar.

8. Place the baking sheet (with both pies) on the center rack in the oven.
Bake for 30 to 38 minutes, or until the crust and crumble on top is a rich golden brown.

9. Remove from oven, and set aside to cool.  Pies can be served warm with vanilla ice cream on the side or served at room temperature.  Chill any leftovers in the refrigerator.

Makes: 2 Apple Crisp Pies

Notes and Baking Tips…

  • Keep in mind, all ovens vary. Gas ovens versus electric ovens all heat and cook differently; therefore, the times to bake these pies will also vary. So check on them after 30 minutes or so.
  • No need to prebake these pies before filling them. If the pies are turning too brown too quickly, you can cover the pie crust with foil wrap, and continue to bake until the pies are done.
  • We prefer to use Honey crisp or Fuji apples, but you can use your favorite apples with this recipe.
