• ⅛ teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 2 (9 inch) unbaked pie crusts

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a 9-inch pie plate with bottom crust.

Step 2

Combine apples, sugar, flour, cinnamon, salt, and nutmeg in a bowl. Place mixture into the prepared pie plate. Dot with butter. Cover with top crust and seal. Cut or poke holes in top crust to allow venting.

Step 3

Place in the preheated oven and bake for 10 minutes. Turn the oven temperature down to 275 to 300 degrees F (135 to 150 degrees C) and bake until crust is golden brown and apples are tender, 40 for 50 minutes. Let cool and serve.
