Here in Michigan, fall is apple season and it’s kind of a big deal. We have a LOT of apple orchards and there’s nothing better than baking with fresh apples at the peak of the season.

One thing you absolutely need to do every year is go to your local apple orchard and either pick apples off of the trees or head into the orchard shop and buy a bag or two of fresh apples, a gallon of apple cider, and a dozen apple donuts.

After enjoying some cider and donuts, the next natural step is to make some delicious apple pie, apple crisp, caramel apples, etc.

In our last recipe post, we made Halloween truffles. Today, we are making Dutch Apple Pie.

This pie requires 5 to 5-1/2 cups of diced apples, which is generally about 5-6 medium sized apples. We used Pink Lady’s for this pie, but you can use your apple of choice.

Apple Corer

Make the slicing job easier by using an apple slicer/corer, like the one pictured above.

Skin each slice and dice it up. If you use a flexible cutting board, you can just pick up your cutting board, fold and pour into a large bowl.

Mix your apples with lemon juice, sugar, brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, and nutmeg until evenly coated.

You can use a store bought or homemade pie crust. Roll your dough out into your pie dish and fill with your apple mixture.

Set this aside while you make your topping.

In a medium or large bowl, mix flour, sugar, brown sugar, and butter with a fork or pastry blender. Pour your crumb topping over your apple filling.
