This is the most time consuming aspect of making this pie!!
This will seem like a ridulously insane amount of apples.
It is.Place pie crust in pie plate.
We will make this pie in three layers.
Layer One…
Add 1/3 of the apples.
This recipe is so simple your kids can help.
If you consider yourself a novice baker you now have no excuse!
As you’ll see, my 5-year old makes this entire pie!!
Layer One…
Layer One…
Add cinnamon (as much or as little as you like).
Layer One…
Add 1/3 of the sugar.
Layer One…
Sprinkle 2 Tbsp of flour.
Repeat these steps for Layer Two…

You definitely will get the “Biggest Bang For Your Buck” when it comes to apples in this pie!!
Cover pie with crust.
It probably won’t fit.
No worries. =)
You will have to stretch it a bit.
Use water to adhere pie crusts together.
This will hopefully keep the butter from oozing out during the baking process!
Adhere pie crusts.
Gently stretch the top pie crust so that it meets up with the bottom crust.
Using your fingers wet the pie crust edges and press together.
Water acts as a glue.
Brush the top of the pie with milk.
A pastry brush works great!
Sprinkle with sugar.
Or douse with sugar.
Whichever you prefer
Make pretty designs.
Sign your name if you wish.
Place on a cookie sheet also covered with tin foil.
Bake with tinfoil on pie for 30 minutes.
Take off tin foil.
Continue to bake pie for an additional 40 minutes.
Or until apples are bubbling.
YUMMY-LICIOUS!!
F.Y.I. I love Vanilla Bean.
Enjoy!!
Thanks for the inspiration, Jill!
