Easy Homemade Crispy Apple Pie

Ingredients

3 cups all-purpose flour with leavening agent
200g unsalted butter or margarine, at room temperature
2 cups granulated sugar
3 egg yolks
3 medium apples, peeled, cored, and thinly sliced
1/2 cup orange juice
2 tablespoons honey
1 cup granulated sugar mixed with ground cinnamon (for dusting)

Where to find ingredients

All-purpose flour with leavening agent, unsalted butter or margarine, granulated sugar, eggs, apples, orange juice, honey, and cinnamon can be found at most grocery stores. Look for fresh apples in the produce section.

Preparation method

  1. In a bowl, combine the leavened flour, butter or margarine, 2 cups of sugar, and egg yolks
  2. With your fingertips or two forks, work the mixture until it forms a homogeneous crumbly texture
  3. Grease a medium baking dish with butter or margarine and lightly flour it, if desired
  4. Place half of the crumbly dough in the baking dish, spreading and pressing firmly with a spoon to form an even base
  5. Arrange the thin apple slices over the dough base
  6. In a small bowl, mix the orange juice with honey and drizzle over the apples
  7. Cover the apples with the remaining crumbly dough, spreading gently without pressing down
  8. Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for approximately 30-40 minutes, or until the surface is golden brown
  9. Remove the pie from the oven and, while still warm, generously sprinkle the sugar and cinnamon mixture on top
  10. Let it cool slightly before serving
  11. The pie can be enjoyed warm or cold
