Perfect Apple Pie

I didn't actually try this recipe, I just wanted the address the apple question of another review...I bake 10-12 apple pies a year and always use the same apple mixture: 2 large Granny Smith, 2 large Rome or Golden Delicious, and 2 misc. apples such as Gala or Fuji. The different textures and levels of sweetness really make the pie incredible. Also, I always thinly slice the apples and slightly overstuff the pie.
Read MoreMy review is for the pie only as I chose to make a different crust. The pie was good, but not special. It called for more apples than I'm generally accustomed to using, so I found it took quite a long time for the pie to be baked long enough. I found I much prefer a recipe with a few less apples which would then have a more reliable cooking time to see the apples cooked through and the juices bubbing, to ensure that the pie would not be watery. In addition, the recipe reconfirmed for me that I don't particularly care for nutmeg in my apple pies. I'll continue, once again, to make mine without it.

I am giving this 4 stars because the first time I made it I followed the recipe to a "t" and it only turned out OK, but it had the potential to be much better. I love making my own crust, I use the Crisco crust recipe (the one that is included here) but I like to add 2Tbs of brown sugar, 1tsp of cinnamon and 8Tbs of ice water instead of 4. (HINT: place Crisco and ice water in freezer at least 30 min before use- if your ingredients get too warm it will yield a chewy crust, not flaky.) When I divide the dough, I make one ball slightly larger for the bottom crust; this allows for your crust to fully cover the bottom of the pan and makes it a little thicker. I then pre-bake the bottom crust in the pie plate at 425 for 5min then lightly sprinkle the bottom crust with flour before adding the apples, this helps with sogginess. I use Macintosh apples and then sprinkle the apples with 2Tbs of whiskey before covering with the top crust. I didn't use the egg wash because the crust really doesn't need it. This made an awesome pie.
Two attempts at this and still trying. Both times I followed the recipe to a T and both times, it turned out beautiful. The only problem is I have not been happy with the taste of the apples. I do not like a tart apple pie. The first time I made it I used Jonathan...very tart. The second time, I used Granny Smith...a little better, but only because I doubled the sugar content. Can anyone tell me the right apple to use for a sweet apple pie??? I was so disappointed to have beautiful pies almost too pretty to even cut, only to taste how tart it was and have to pitch the whole thing!
Although I'm giving this recipe a 5 star rating I have to say that it is based on the filling only. I was pressed for time so I ended using a ready to use crust. It is excellent though. I used 5 very large Granny Smith apples and it was a little bit on the tart side. So I'd increase the amount of sugar just a tad if using these types of apples again.
It is absolutely amazing how simple yet delicious this recipe is. What takes time is slicing the apples and it is worth it! The only thing I did different was to use 1/2cup white sugar and 1/2 cup brown sugar (I like the taste and texture brown sugar adds).
Excellent recipe! The only changes I made were to use one of those all ready rolled out pie crusts, I used a mix of granny smith and honey crisp apples,and when I egg washed the top crust, I sprinkled it with coarse white sugar. This is the only apple pie recipe I will use from here on out, the filling was perfect!!!!!
Very delicious! It was my first time making apple pie and this proved to be an easy recipe to follow. Only thing is that the directions say to add salt to the filling, but salt isn't mentioned in the filling's ingredients, only in the crust. Hmm...
Easy and delicious, this recipe is great! I did have to tweak the amount of water for the crust, 4 tablespoons was not enough. I ended up using 8 and it was perfect. This was my first time making apple pie from scratch and thanks to this recipe it won't be my last!
I use McIntosh or a combination of McIntosh & Cortlands as my family and I prefer a softer apple filling that holds together (I NEVER use Granny Smiths). I pre-cook my apple slices, tossed with butter, with sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, a pinch of salt and 2 Tbs. flour. That way you don't get a "tunnel/cave" between the filling and top crust after baking the pie. After allowing the apple mixture to cool completely, I pour it into the bottom crust, place the top crust, and egg wash it after fluting the edges. I make steam vents in the top then sprinkle it with some turbinado sugar. I bake it in the lower third of the oven for 40 to 50 min. Perfect every time.
This is perfect. Thanks! My husband who doesn't like apple pie, was making yum sounds while eating it.
I cheated and used a storebought crust, but the filling was awesome! My fiance's been wanting an apple pie made with fresh apples, and this one did the trick. Yum!

Following review and rating based on FILLING ONLY- To be honest I actually used the "Aunt Carols' Apple Pie" recipe from this site to make me pie, HOWEVER, I had both this and that recipe in my box and the reviews on Aunt Carol's recipe were suggesting so many changes (turns out those changes were much needed) that by the time I made the pie , the filling turned out being almost identical to this recipe instead of Aunt Carol's. I've heard a lot that the best apple pie is made from dfferent types of apples, mixed. So I used 2 Granny-Smith, 2 of this red/yellow type (forgot the name), and one red delicious for this recipe. 5 Apples was a perfect amount for my dish. Sugar amount on this recipe is spot on, as well as the lemon juice, flour etc. I used the 'French Pastry Pie Crust' pie crust recipe from this site and it was FABULOUS. Normally when I purchase apple pies store-bought I Never eat the outer layer extra crust , even if the pie is warmed up, but not with the flaky delicious crust that recipe makes! Look it up and Try it! Baking times for me in this recipe were also perfect and made the apples in my pie cook flawlessly. Not mushy but not too firm. I can't speak for the crust in this recpe, but try the filling in this recpe, you cannot go wrong and you wont regret it!
My first time making apple pie from scratch, and it was the most amazing apple pie I've ever had. My family was shocked at how good it was. I did not have shortening, so I used butter for both crust and filling, and it turned out just fine.
My review is for the pie only as I chose to make a different crust. The pie was good, but not special. It called for more apples than I'm generally accustomed to using, so I found it took quite a long time for the pie to be baked long enough. I found I much prefer a recipe with a few less apples which would then have a more reliable cooking time to see the apples cooked through and the juices bubbing, to ensure that the pie would not be watery. In addition, the recipe reconfirmed for me that I don't particularly care for nutmeg in my apple pies. I'll continue, once again, to make mine without it.
Two thumbs up! This was super yummy. I didn't have any nutmeg and since it would have added 5 or 6 dollars to the cost I skipped it. I did add half a cup of brown sugar though. I bet the nutmeg would have gone nicely with the pie. I found that 5 large granny smith apples was about 7 cups, however I feel like I could only fit about 5 cups in the deep dish pie crust I bought. I piled the apples about as high as I could have and couldn't use all 7 cups. It did leak all over my oven so I recommend putting some aluminum foil underneath to catch any drippings. Next time I will add the nutmeg...
This was my ver first apple pie from scratch and it was Very good, I used a different recipe for the pie crust. I made this recipe trying to find something similar to my grandmother's apple pie, well it was not my grandma's pie, but it was VERY good. I used the recipe for Pie Crust I with it. Would recommend this recipe to anyone who has never made a pie from scratch before.
This is so close to the apple pie that I've been making for close to 50 years. The only difference in the crust is that I use part butter for better flavor. For the apples, I like to use Early Golds but realize that they are not readily available everywhere. The others that I've been successful with are combinations of zestar, jonagolds, ginger golds, pink lady and jonathon. I've never understood the Granny Smith recommendations. They do not cook well and always seem crunchy and sour tasting after the pie is done. If that were my only choice, I would not make apple pie. I also use part brown sugar for a yummy caramel-like flavor.
I just made an apple pie , not exactly followed the recipe mentioned here,I just used the filling recipe and made the crust using 2 cups all purpose flour with one tsp salt and 1/2 cup shortening. my pie turned out so yummy.I also added some golden syrup into the filling.
I think there is a misprint for the crust recipe - I had to add more water than stated and checked other recipes for a single crust and found for two cups of flour that 8 - 10 tbsps of water are required - After adding more water, the crust was so flaky and yummy -
delicious. i only used the filling recipe and used premade dough. but it was very good!
LOVE this recipe, thanks so much!!! I finally have the result I wanted, a nice and thick sauce, not runny at all!! My german family loved it, finally a pie like we remembered from our life in the US !!! (It's the nutmeg that makes the difference!)
Excellent. I made alterations based on the reviews, and the pie was incredible. The flavors married perfectly. I also added a tsp of vanilla to the filling. Alterations are thusly: Added 1-2tsp. cinnamon and 2 Tbl. of brown sugar to the crust. Used butter instead of Crisco, and 8-10 Tbl. milk instead of water. The filling used 3 types of apples (granny smith, golden delicious, gala). The sugar consisted of equal parts of white and brown. The filling also included a small amount of maple syrup (1/3 cup approx.) and a 1 tsp of vanilla to help "marry" the flavors together (note the nice caramel syrup on the plate (look at photo with a slice of pie and ice cream). Got rave reviews.
This was my fist attempt at making an apple pie. I wanted a simple recipe. I cheated and used a ready made crust. I followed the filling recipe . I used some really sweet Fiji apples. And it turned out wonderful.
I only used the crust recipe from this recipe and it turned out great.
This is the best apple pie recipe that I have ever found. Everyone loves this pie even those that aren't apple fans.
I made two of these and they were very tasty. I cheated and used store bought pie crusts for the bottom of the pie and then topped it with the dough from this recipe. I'm not a big pie baker, but this was very easy to do and resulted in very tasty pie...snacking on the one from yesterday at this moment; second one is in the oven right now.
Love this recipe!!!! The crust is super flaky and the pie all together is just over the top delicious! Wouldn't try any other recipe. :-)
Oh my goodness this is my FAVORITE recipe for apple pie now. I have tried a few other ones (including Granny Ople's) and by far this the best one! The only thing I did different was follow other reviewers and used 1/2 white sugar and 1/2 brown sugar and it came out Perfect thus giving credit to its' name. Deleting all other apple pie recipes from my box!
Excellent apple pie filling! I used a combination of Jonagolds and Granny Smith's, and I used the pie crust recipe from Barefoot Contessa (brushed with egg yolk per this recipe's instructions)--turned out perfectly! .html
This pie was delicious and looked spectacular with a lattace crust. First time I had tried a lattace top and it had to turn out perfect as I was making it for our Family Christmas Dinner. It didn't let us down. I changed nothing except for more water to make the pastry (8 tbsps.) and a sprinkling of sugar over the egg wash just before baking. Times and temperatures were also right on.
I loved it!! I thought maybe I just did not like apple pies...Then I tried this easy recipe and it was way yummy! Thanks
I have made this several times. Love this recipe. The filling is perfect. I used this combination of apples: 2 large Granny apple 2 Large Rome or Golden Delicious 2 Gala or Fuji (or 1 Gala 1 Fuji)
I made one pie last night and two this morning. Aaahhhhhh how perfect they came out. Sooooo freakin good. I did add about a half cup of brown sugar to recipe. It turned out great!!!!!
Excellent! Made just as it (but used my own crust recipe) - times were great and I used freshly picked red apples from a nearby orchard... I can definitely see how Granny Smith's would be way too tart, so just use red or a blend. YUMMY!!!!
This recipe is great! It was my first time making the crust from scratch, and it was absolutely delicious! I did add about 1/2 cup of brown sugar to the apple mixture. I also sprinkled a little bit of sugar and cinnnamon on the top crust. This will defiinitely be a go-to recipe!
This is a delicious apple pie recipe. It was very easy to make and would be great for a new pie baker. Thanks for the great recipe.
My first apple pie, and it turned out perfect! in fact, my DH told me that it was the best apple pie he's ever had! I used refrigerated pie crust and 8 apples (1/2 granny smith, 1/2 honeycrisp). I also sprinkled sugar and cinnamon over the top before baking. The only negative about this recipe is that I can't stop eating it! :)
This is the best apple pie recipe I've found. The crust is ALWAYS flaky, (I add 4 tbsp. of water all at once) and it's just yummy! The only complaint I have is, I have to double the crust to I have enough dough. My dad and husband ate almost the entire pie (except 1 slice that I had) in an evening! It was that good.
The crust for this recipe was nothing special. It was neither light nor flaky. I even used butter instead of shortening as people recommended. The filling was even worse. It was so sweet it was inedible. I felt like my teeth were rotting after one bite. The sweetness overwhelmed the apples dramatically. I would not recommend this to anyone who likes apple pie. It is more like caramel apples in a shell.
What a truly PERFECT apple pie recipe! I entered this in a local pie contest today and it won first prize! I used 1 honey crisp, 2 granny smith, 2 golden delicious, and 2 fuji apples.
First time I have ever baked an apple pie and it came out wonderfully.. (with the help of a reviewer below who added her ideas as well.). I'd like it to be a little bit sweeter - and to this end I'd just say to add another type of apple. I used Green and Gala - but not in equal portions...more Green. Use more Gala or Red Delicious or whatever is sweeter if that's what you like. Sure it will be great. Oh yeah, I cut out the butter too (just forgot it really). But having said that, it came out just perfectly fine without. Why add the extra fat? It's not necessary at all. Good luck!
Best apple pie ever. The perfect mix of everything. Not too much and not too little. Not too heavy or too syrupy. We used Jonathan apples and it was perfect. Its my new go to recipe for apple pie.
My first time making a homemade apple pie and it came out perfect! I used all granny smith apples and the "best ever pie crust" recipe from this site. (i love that flaky pie crust recipe!) I added the 2 tablespoons of lemon juice to a bowl of water and let the apple slices soak while I got my other ingredients together. The changes I made to the filling mixture were: 1/2 cup white sugar and 1/2 cup brown sugar as others suggested, 1 tsp. of vanilla and a 1/4 tsp of salt. I sprinkled some of the dry ingredient mixture on the bottom of the pie crust before I added the apples and vanilla to it. I did not brush the top with egg yolk.
The only thing I did differently is added 4 tbs butter instead of 2! This is the best recipe I have tried and is a keeper!!!
This pie filling was delicious, though I actually used a different recipe for the crust. I added a little extra lemon juice, as well as a 1/4 tsp. of ground cloves, and the flavor was wonderful. The only thing I wished that this recipe had mentioned was to wait for 15-20 minutes before cutting the pie; it needs to cool a little before being cut to avoid it being soupy.
Made this for Thanksgiving. Was wonderful and the guests destroyed it in a matter of minutes. Next time I will only add one TBSP of butter to dot the pie and lay down foil on the baking pan beneath the pie due to some overflow. the 7 cups thinly sliced apples is around 8 apples (I used 4 gala and 4 honeycrisp).
I am only reviewing the crust of this pie as I had gala apples and didn't want to add too much sugar, so I had to change things around a bit. The crust is the PERFECT one for apple pie. I used 8-9 tablespoons of cold water though, not 4 and did it all in my food processor. I had enough left over from half to make a lattice top and still have half left over for another pie. Thankyou! My search for the perfect crust ends.
This was my first attempt at baking an apple pie and it was a complete success. It was very easy. Be sure to put a cookie sheet covered with foil under your pie to avoid a mess in your oven and for easy clean up of cookie sheet. I used gala, empire, and granny smith apples.
very easy to make, no fancy stuff. i always had a problem with crusts, this time i had no problem. will make agian
the name says it all. it is a perfect apple pie. I hadn't made a pie in years. this year I got a bumper crop of apples, so I made this recipe for a church function, was a little nervous, but the pie was a hugh hit.
This truly is the perfect apple pie! I didn't change a thing except for store bought crust! Will be making this every fall for sure!
I followed the recipe pretty close and it was INCREDIBLE! For apples I used 2 large Granny Smith, 2 large Golden Delicious, and 2 Fuji. I substituted the crust and used the Pie Crust IV recipe on this site because I know that is an incredible crust. The final pie was absolutely perfect.

So, so very good! This is by far the best apple pie I have ever had. I made this for Thanksgiving & everyone raved about how good it was. I made just a few changes to the recipe-used 2 Fuji apples, 2 Granny smith, and 2 Golden Delicious. I ended up having a little bit of extra apples-but the different kinds turned out tasting great! I will def. be making this one again!
Terrific recipe...hard to goof this one up (and i do goof up regularly). Excellent for any occasion...trust Minnesotans!
It was great. and I just realized i forgot the lemon juice... (it was still good) The crust was crispy, but I did bake it for 5 min first, as one suggested :) There was slightly not enough dough to cover the pie, so I made stripes... My Friends liked it and told me I should make it again and again :)
made granny opals and this pie, and really loved this one! granny opals isn't bad but you have to like the caramel type sauce in the pie which i'm not a fan of. when I made this the other night it was gone in no time! making another one in a few minutes and i use Pillbury ready made crusts which are simply amazing for box crusts!
The actual pie was WONDERFUL! So tasty. The crust was awful. It fell apart, cracked, and was way too dry and crumbly. I ended up using my normal pie crust for it.
I just used the crust recipe.
This was a great pie. I just used a ready made pie crust and made a streusel topping.
This recipe makes little to no sense. A cup of sugar is an absurd amount, it made the pie watery. Really, really watery. Cooking on a high temp and then a low made the crust burn. The pie was so watery and heavy that it made my pie pan collapse into a mess on the floor. Even if the pie had survived, it was so soggy and sugary that it wasn't even appetizing.
My 1st try at apple pie and it came out beautifully! Many said it was the best apple pie they'd ever had! I used Granny Smith apples fresh off our tree. Knowing our tree grows them a bit tart I added 3 extra tbs of sugar and it came out ust right. I also cut down the butter to 1 tbs. Great recipe with some fresh whip cream!
I made this pie again tonight -- I always seem to come back to it after trying other recipes (including ones on this site) that don't come close to matching this one. I added 1/4 t. salt to the filling (salt is mentioned in the directions, but not the ingredients list in the recipe) and used Barefoot Contessa's pie crust, but I will never again make another apple pie filling besides this one. This is it!
Loved loved loved the crust. It just melted in your mouth. The filling was very good but as others would say a little tart. I used 3 granny smith and 3 golden del., next time I will just use 1 or 2 granny smiths and the rest something not so tart next time. I also did not have any nutmeg so I through in some all spice instead. First time and it wasn't as hard as people warned me. Very messy though!!!
Fantastic, awesome, amazing! Can I say more...?? Used my bother0in-laws pie crust recipe and used this filling exactly as written and it was perfect!!
This is the easiest apple pie I have ever made. I have had more requests for this recipe than anything I have ever baked. I do add more cinnamon and use a store bought crust to save time. I have frozen so many apple pies to see us through the winter months due to the abundance of apples on our trees. Try it; you won't use any other recipe.
I am a few changes. I added 1/4 tps of ground ginger. In addition, to make the recipe "no sugar added", I used 1/2 cup sweetener and 1/2 cup brown sugar substitute sweetener (because i am diabetic) in place of the sugar and brown sugar. Otherwise I followed the recipe. The pie came out perfect and was delicious.
This is the best apple pie I have ever made. followed the recipe exactly. Did not use the crust part though I was pressed for time. I used store crust. We went up to ellajay (north GA Mtns.) to the apple farms and brought back a heepen helpen of apples. I used Arkansas Black apples which are a perfect baking apple. Turned out wonderful. Thanks
This is perfect! I didn't have time to make my own dough,so I used a store bought pie crust for the bottom. And I toped it with a crumb mixture of 1/2 a cup of brown sugar,1 cup of flour and a stick of softened butter. Thanks Judy! :)(:
love the caremel sauce. I brushed the top of my pastry with egg and it came out perfectly brown. Again love the caramel sauce in the recipe.yum
I split the sugar: 1/2 cup white, 1/2 brown and included a tsp. of vanilla. Unfortunately I forgot to add the butter. 7 apples were plenty = 5 stars.
Yup, awesome pie. We added a tablespoon of spiced rum for a little extra pinache. Yup, I said pinache.
Yay! This recipe turned out perfectly for me (and I'm not the most experienced piemaker in the world). I used 1/2 Granny Smith and 1/2 Honey Crisp apples and really liked the way it turned out. Great consistency, not overly sweet, perfect with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream. Thanks for the recipe!
This is a wonderful basic apple pie recipe. I've made it several times now with excellent results. I normally use a blend of Granny Smith and gala or Fugi apples. Also, I find the crust to be very easy to assemble and work with (usually I'm terrible at crusts). This is definitely my "go-to" recipe for pie.
This is delightful. I switched it up with 4 cups of apples and 3 cups of blueberries. Everything else was the same. My wife told me that it's hands down the most delightful pie that I've ever made (and I like making pie). I would recommend it!
I love this Recipe! I made it for my Sunday school teacher last Sunday and have made it 3 times sense! I recommend that you use Granny Smith apples. Thanks for posting this!
I was hesitate to try this recipe because it doesn't use a pre-made crust. Luckily, the crust was delicious! It was a little dry which made it pretty hard with but, it still came out. Aside from that, it was incredible!
When I first started putting the pie together I was not sure I would like this recipe, because the pie crust was a little difficult to work with. However, after following the recipe to the T, and it did come out PERFECT. This recipe has the correct name of "Perfect Apple Pie." I made this for dinner guest and each one commented on how wonderful it tasted. The crust was flaky and perfect, and the filling had the perfect amount of sweetness. I served with Vanilla ice cream. Also, I used Granny Smith apples, and it was delicious!
I made this pie last night, using danielle's suggestion of 2 Granny Smith, 2 Golden Delicious and 2 Fuji apples. I used my own crust recipe, but did everything else the same, and served it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. My husband remarked that it was the best apple pie he'd ever had. My gourmet chef mother-in-law agreed. That's quite a compliment! I will definitely be making this one again. Thanks for a great recipe!
Excellent! Used a store bought pie crust as they generally taste as delicious as homemade and are decidedly easier. Used 4 Granny Smiths and the rest Fuji apples and added a little extra cinnamon and nutmeg--you can never have enough! We will definitely see this at future fall family gatherings.
I do not know what to say. It seemed easy enough untill I need to roll the dough out. What a pain! OMGosh I have never had problems like this before. Could it be something here in Houston? URGH! I tryed (after following the recipe to the "t" more ice water more flour...nothing seemed to work. Instead of the normal time it takes to put together the pie (with rolling the dough) I could have made 2 more...(a little funny but still just fustrating).
I have never tasted a more perfect apple pie and I love apple pie! Thanks for sharing!
Good tasting/textured pie with a decent crust. I used a mixture of Alkmene, Sunrise and Honeycrisp apples.
The all-time best recipe for apple pie! I have made this time & time again and always get compliments. This recipe is SO good, you can even make it with margarine in place of butter and it turns out just as fantastic!
Perfect in every way.Added more cinnamon,and I used granny smith,and red delicious apples together.thnx for this wonderful recipe.
It was a lot better than I anticipated. I used Ruby Jon apples. It was one of the best apple pies I've ever had.
I've been trying different apple pie recipes for over three years and this one is definitely a favorite. I have finally settled on using Braeburn apples in my pies, which are delicious. I use a little less sugar than 1 cup when I use the Braeburn though versus Granny Smith.
Love this pie. I used half white / half brown sugar and it came out perfect. This is my all time favorite pie .
This pie is so easy to make! I don't always make the crust and use store bought depending on the time I have. I also sometimes add a crumble mixture to the top.
A good basic apple pie recipe! Perfect to add different spices to and such. I normally add allspice and ginger to mine, sometimes cloves. Apple pies are just so versatile!
This is quite likely the only recipe for apple pie that I'll ever use again. I did not use the crust recipe, but the filling was so simple and just tasted amazing! I love Dutch Apple Pie, so the only thing I might do differently in the future is to make a crumb topping to cover. Thank you for sharing!
This pie was amazing. I usually don't bake pies, but my family liked it so much I cooked it fro my grandparents. Anyone who loves a traditional pie but also loves to be unique, they should definately bake this pie.
my first attempt at pie and it turned-out. Thanks for the recipe!
This really is a wonderful recipe. I followed a previous user's advice on how many of which apples to use (2 granny smith,2 Fuji and 2-3 golden delicious) and the filling is perfect every time. One of these days I'll actually make the crust and not cheat with the pre-made!
My boyfriend loves apple pie. I made a similar recipe to this one and it came out watery and soggy (even after baking it 20 min longer than directed). So, I was determined to try again and salvage my dignity! This recipe turned out much better with the following adjustments: I added almost 3/4 cup flour, substituted 1/2 dark brown sugar, and added 2 more T of butter. It looks beautiful, is not too sweet and ISN'T soggy.
