Equipment

Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • cup brown sugar
  • ½ cup oats old fashioned, uncooked
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • cup pecans chopped
  • ¾ cup butter melted
  • 4 cups tart thinly sliced apples (like Granny Smith; about 3 apples)
  • cup white sugar
  • 1 ½ teaspoon cornstarch
  • teasppon salt
  • ¼ cup water
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350℉.
  • Combine flour, brown sugar, oats, salt, chopped pecans, and melted butter in a medium bowl. Pack 1 cup of the mixture into a measuring cup and set it aside; gently press remaining mixture into a 9″ pie plate. Be sure not to pack it in there too tightly, or it will be too hard and messy to slice the pie when it’s baked.
  • In a small saucepan, combine sugar, cornstarch, salt, water, and vanilla and bring to a boil. While mixture is heating, place apples in the pie crust. After sugar/water mixture has come to a boil, pour the hot mixture over the apples. Sprinkle reserved crumb topping over apples and then place the pie plate on a baking sheet.
  • Bake for 43-45 minutes. During the last 15 minutes or so, you may need to cover the pie with a sheet of aluminum foil to keep the pie from getting too brown.
  • Serve warm (if you can) with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of sweetened whipped cream.

Notes

  • Store leftover cooled pie, tightly covered, in the refrigerator and consume within 3-4 days for best results.
  • An apple peeler and corer will be your best buddy here if you have one!
