Dutch Apple Pie

Ingredients

• 1 single pie crust
• 2 ½ pounds granny smith apples (about 6 apples)
• ½ cup granulated sugar
• ¼ cup all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• ½ teaspoon ground cardamom
• ½ cup raisins (optional)
• ⅔ cup all-purpose flour
• ¼ cup brown sugar (packed)
• ¼ cup granulated sugar
• ⅓ cup cold butter

Steps

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a deep-dish pie plate with pie crust.

2. 2

   Peel and core apples. Slice into ⅛" slices. Toss apple slices with sugar, flour, spices, and raisins if using. Place apple slices in prepared pastry.

3. 3

   Mix flour, brown sugar, and white sugar in a bowl. Add butter and combine using a pastry cutter to break down the large pieces of butter.

4. 4

   Work ingredients with hands until large crumbs have formed. If the mixture is powdery it needs to be mixed longer.

5. 5

   Sprinkle the crumbs over the apples.

6. 6

   Bake 50-60 minutes or until apples are tender and crust is golden.
