Quick and Easy Apple Pie

20-minute, mouth-watering apple pie! So easy, your mini chefs can even make it!!




Alright, buckle up folks, because I'm about to dish out a quick apple pie recipe that will have you drooling in no time! We're talking easy, warm, yummy crumb-topping, and canned-apple goodness. So, grab your pre-made pie crusts and let's get this dessert party started!

 

Ingredients for the Pie:

  • 1 pre-made pie crust

  • 1 can of sliced apples (we used unsweetened)

  • 2 tablespoons of cornstarch

  • 1/3 cup brown sugar (we used white or you can make your own!)

  • 1/3 cup white sugar

  • 1 teaspoon of cinnamon (we used two)

  • 1 teaspoon of vanilla

  • pinch of salt


Crumb topping:

  • 3/4 cup of flour

  • 1/4 cup of butter melted

  • 1 teaspoon of cinnamon


Step 1: Let’s Get Started


First things first, preheat your oven to a toasty temperature that screams, I'm ready for some appleliciousness! (let's say 425°F and/or just follow the instructions on the pie crust!!!!)


Now, take those glorious pre-made pie crusts and gently place one into a pie dish. Don't worry if it's not perfect - imperfections just add character! (I actually used one roll from a mini pie crust box, by placing it in my baking dish, be sure to roll out the lines, meant to make smaller pies, so that your filling does not leak out of your pie crust!)


Step 2: Making the Filling


Next up, crack open that can of apples like a detective cracking a case (We watch enough murder mysteries). Pour those juicy slices into a mixing bowl and get ready to add in more sweet goodness!!!




Mix the canned apples, with your white and brown sugar, cornstarch, salt, cinnamon and vanilla, give it a good stir then drop those apples like they are hot into the pie crust with all the enthusiasm of a kid in a candy store. Spread them out evenly and make sure they know they're in for something special.



Step 3: Make and add the crumb topping


Now here comes the fun part - the crumb topping! Mix together your flour, cinnamon, sugar, butter (the more melted buttery goodness the better), and maybe even throw in some nutmeg if you're feeling fancy. Sprinkle this magical concoction over the apples like fairy dust from heaven.





Step 4: We are almost there!!


Pop that beauty into the preheated oven and let it bake until your kitchen smells like paradise - around 35-40 minutes should do the trick. Once it's golden brown and bubbling with delight, take it out of the oven and let it cool for a bit (if you can resist diving right in).


And voila! You've just created an apple pie masterpiece without breaking a sweat. Serve it warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or devour it as is - either way, prepare yourself for pure dessert bliss.


 

So, there you have it!
