Dutch Apple Pie #SundaySupper

A crumb topping makes this Dutch Apple Pie so easy to make, plus who doesn’t love a streusel topping???

Dutch Apple Pie

I’m not sure if this pie has anything to do with Holland, but Dutch Apple Pie typically refers to an apple pie topped with a crumble topping. For me, it’s a delight not to fiddle with a top crust. Though I’ve finally gotten to where my crusts are consistently flaky and tasty, they’re not always so pretty once they get transferred to the top of a pie.

This pie’s streusel topping solves that problem. I’d recommend covering the surface with foil about half-way through the baking time as this recipe requires a longer stint in the oven in order to cook the apples to perfection. The last thing you want is a charred crust or topping. For another “easier than pie” recipe, this fabulous Maple Glazed Apple Galette is another terrific apple dessert that doesn’t need a top crust.

Making the BEST Apple Pies

I find the tastiest apple pies are made with a variety of baking apples. This ensures that there will be a depth of flavor, combination of textures and balance of sweetness and tartness.

My go-to selection is a couple each of Granny Smiths, golden delicious and Jonathans. Though, when I got a shipment of Northern Spys from Michigan, those alone made the best tasting pie ever—so if you have access to a spectacular pie apple, go for a solo variety. Otherwise, a nice mixture is your best bet. Today, the Sunday Supper team is focusing on autumn foods and flavors. Make sure you check out all the terrific recipes featured today.

A delectable apple pie topped with streusel

• Author: Liz Berg
• Yield: 6-8 servings

Ingredients

• 3 pounds baking apples (use different types like Granny Smith, Golden Delicious, Jonathon), peeled and cut into slices
• 3/4 cup sugar
• 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• A few gratings of fresh nutmeg
• Pastry dough for 1 layer pie crust (your favorite recipe or pre-made crust)
• 1 cup flour
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1/4 cup brown sugar
• 6 tablespoons butter, cool, not cold

Instructions

1. Roll out pie dough and fit into a 9-inch pie plate. Place in refrigerator while preparing the filling. Preheat oven to 400º.
2. Toss apple slices with sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Set aside, stirring once or twice to help dissolve sugar.
3. In a medium bowl, using two knives or pastry blender, cut butter into flour and sugars. Then pinch with fingers till large crumbs form.
4. Take crust out of the refrigerator and fill with apples. Sprinkle topping over top of apples. Bake for 40 minutes then reduce to 350º for 50 minutes or till filling is bubbling and apples are tender. Cover crust with foil if browning too quickly.
5. Cool before slicing. Serve with vanilla ice cream.
