Quick Apple Pie (3 Apples)
Ingredients
- 3 medium apples (peeled, cored, sliced)
- 1 ready-made pie crust (or 2 if making a top crust)
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1 tablespoon flour (for thickening)
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg (optional)
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon butter, cut into small pieces
Instructions

- Set to 375°F (190°C).
- Prepare filling
- In a bowl, mix sliced apples with sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, and lemon juice.
- Assemble pie
- Place crust in a pie dish.
- Add apple mixture evenly.
- Dot with butter pieces.
- Cover with top crust or make a simple lattice (optional).
- Cut small slits on top to let steam escape.
- Bake
- Bake for 35–45 minutes until crust is golden and filling is bubbling.
- Cool & serve
- Let it cool for at least 15 minutes before slicing.
💡 Quick Tips
- Use firm apples (like Granny Smith or Fuji) so they don’t turn mushy.
- Sprinkle a little sugar on top of the crust for extra crunch.
- Serve warm with ice cream or whipped cream if you like.
