  • 3/4 cups Sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
  • 2 Tablespoons All-purpose Flour

Directions

  1. 1
    For the dough:
  2. 2
    Pulse the flour, granulated sugar, vinegar, salt and 3 tablespoons of the butter in a food processor until the butter is incorporated. Add the remaining butter and pulse until it is in pea-size pieces. Add 2 tablespoons of ice water and pulse until the dough just comes together. Pinch a small piece of dough. If it doesn't hold together, add up to 2 more tablespoons ice water, pulsing to combine and adding only 1 tablespoon at a time. Turn the dough out onto a large piece of plastic wrap and press into a ball. Refrigerate until firm, at least 1 hour.
  3. 3
    Roll the dough into a 12-inch round on a lightly floured surface. Add a little more ice water here, if needed. Press the dough into a 9 inch pie pan and fold the overhang under itself and crimp the edges. Refrigerate 30 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 350 F.
  4. 4
    Lightly pierce the bottom and sides of the crust with a fork, then top the pie with a piece of parchment paper and bake for 20 minutes. Then remove the parchment and continue baking about 10 more minutes or until lightly golden. Transfer to a rack and let cool completely.
  5. 5
    Meanwhile, make the crumb: Mix all of the crumb ingredients together in a medium-sized bowl and crumble it over a wax paper lined baking sheet. Freeze for at least 30 minutes or until ready to use.
  6. 6
    Then, make the filling: Peel, core, and dice the apples. Place them in a large bowl and stir in the lemon juice. Stir in the sugar, cinnamon and flour until combined. Let the mixture sit 5 minutes then pour it into the prepared pie crust. Sprinkle the crumb topping over the filling and bake for 35-40 minutes or until the top is browned. Let it cool then slice and serve. Enjoy!
