Ingredients

Crust

Filling

  • 6 cups thinly sliced, peeled apples (6 medium)
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Topping

  • 1/3 cup caramel topping
  • 2 to 4 tablespoons chopped pecans

Steps

  • 1
    Heat oven to 425°F. Make pie crusts as directed on box for Two-Crust Pie using 9-inch glass pie plate.
  • 2
    In large bowl, gently mix filling ingredients; spoon into crust-lined pie plate. Top with second crust; seal edges and flute. Cut slits or shapes in several places in top crust. Cover edge with 2- to 3-inch-wide strips of foil to prevent excessive browning; remove foil during last 15 minutes of baking.
  • 3
    Bake 40 to 45 minutes or until apples are tender and crust is golden brown. Immediately after removing pie from oven, drizzle with caramel topping; sprinkle with pecans. Cool on cooling rack at least 2 hours before serving.

Tips from the Pillsbury Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Tart apples, such as Granny Smith, McIntosh or Haralson, make the most flavorful pies. Eating apples, like Red Delicious, do not cook down as much during baking.
  • tip 2
    Two 21-ounce cans of apple pie filling can be substituted for the fresh apple filling. Toasted, chopped walnuts may be substituted for the pecans.
