Apple crumb pie for an 'iconic all-American Thanksgiving dessert': Try the recipe

Make Thanksgiving 2023 extra sweet with this apple crumb pie dessert from Jessica Robinson, AFarmgirlsKitchen.com food blogger, who is based in North Carolina. This recipe serves 10.

Yes, there will be pumpkin pie at the Thanksgiving table. But how about apple crumb pie, too?

"Apple crumb pie uses seasonal apples, store-bought or homemade pie crust and a delicious crumb topping. Apple pie is the iconic all-American Thanksgiving dessert," said Jessica Robinson, AFarmgirlsKitchen.com food blogger, two-time cookbook author and homesteader living in North Carolina.

Robinson recommends making the crumb topping and homemade pie crust (if you’re doing the made-from-scratch route) ahead of time and refrigerating overnight.

1. Prepare the pie crust if you are making homemade pie crust. Refrigerate for several hours or overnight.

2. In a large bowl, use a large spoon or rubber spatula to stir together the apples with lemon juice, sugar, tapioca, cinnamon and nutmeg until combined. Set aside.

3. On a lightly floured work surface, roll out the bottom crust slightly larger in diameter than your baking dish. Gently place the pie crust into the pan lightly, using your fingers. Use kitchen shears to trim the edges of the crust, to about ¾-inch past the pan rim.

4. Use a slotted spoon to scoop the apple filling into the pie crust. Discard the remaining lemon juice.

5. Trim the edges of pie crust with kitchen shears and roll under the crust. Crimp with your fingers or press with a fork.

6. Sprinkle the crumb topping over the apples.

7. Brush the pie crust edges with an egg wash which is typically comprised of one egg with one tablespoon of liquid (water or milk) beaten until smooth.

8. Place the pie on a half sheet pan lined with parchment paper. This will help catch any juices that run over the edges of the pie plate.

9. Place in a preheated, 400-degree-Farenheit oven for 1 hour. The crust will be golden brown and the filling bubbling up around the edges of the crust.

10. Part way through baking, cover the pie with a piece of aluminum foil where you have cut a hole in the center. This will help the pie continue cooking, but let steam escape so your pie crust does not become soggy. This will prevent the edges of the pie crust from becoming too brown.

11. Let cool for at least an hour or two before slicing. This will allow the pie filling to set.
