Apple Crumb Pie

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 450 degrees.

2. 2

   Either make your own pie crust or unwrap the store-bought one. Marie Callender's pie crusts or Pillsbury roll-up ones work fine.

3. 3

   Peel, core and slice the apples into wedges.

4. 4

   Pile all of the apples into the shell. Pile on as many on as you can. Mix the first 1/2 cup sugar and 1 teaspoon of cinnamon then sprinkle it evenly over the apples.

5. 5

   Combine the second 1/2 cup sugar, 3/4 cup flour and 1/3 cup butter in a food processor or large bowl. Mix until crumbs form (about 30 seconds). It's okay if there's some powdery stuff, too. If doing by hand, use a fork and knife and cut the butter into the dry ingredients. Keep cutting until you have crumbs (about 5 minutes).

6. 6

   Pile the crumbs carefully on top of the apples.

7. 7

   Put the pie on a cookie sheet and stick in the preheated oven. Cook for 9-11 minutes at 450 until the crumbs start to turn a little brown. Reduce oven temperature to 350 and cook for another 45-50 minutes until apples are tender. When you take it out of the oven, the pie will still be sort of tall, but it settles down as it cools.

8. 8

   Let it cool completely before covering it or the heat from the pie will make the crumbs mushy.
