Ingredients
To make a homemade apple pie, you will need the following ingredients: 1/2 cup of butter, 2 cups of sugar, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, 3 tablespoons of flour, 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon, 3 tablespoons of lemon juice, 6 medium apples, and 1 unbaked 9-inch deep-dish pie shell.
Instructions
Begin by preheating your oven to 375 degrees. In a large bowl, mix together the butter, sugar, salt, flour, and cinnamon until the mixture is crumbly. Peel and core the apples, then cut them into thin slices.
Place the apples in the unbaked pie shell. Sprinkle it with the lemon juice. Add the butter-sugar mixture to the top of the apples. Place the pie in the preheated oven and bake for 40 to 50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown.
Serving
Once the pie is finished baking, allow it to cool before serving. Serve the pie warm or cold with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of freshly whipped cream. Enjoy the delicious homemade apple pie with friends and family.
