This all-star slab pie gets rave reviews, and for good reason: It features a flaky, buttery double crust, it’s filled with fresh fruit and it bakes easily in a 13x9. The hardest part of making it is waiting for it to cool out of the oven before you can dig in. MORE+ LESS-

Expert Tips

If desired, brush crust with milk, and sprinkle with sugar before baking for extra flavor and a decorative touch.
Be sure to use the best baking apple varieties for this recipe: Choose ones that are firm with a sweet-tart balance of flavor. Our favorites include Granny Smith, Honeycrisp and Gala. Avoid using Red Delicious for any baking recipe.
Serve each slice of this pie with fresh whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream, if desired.
