1
Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 350F.

6
Dust the top of the dough with flour.

Heap the apples in the crust, mounding them high in the center.
10
Bring up the edges of the dough, pleating the dough as needed around the circumference of the dish the center of the filling will be visible.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
