Ingredients
  

  • 1 - 9 inch unbaked pie shell
  • 8 Granny Smith Apples peeled, cored, and thickly sliced

Caramel Sauce for filling

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 3 Tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar

Crumb topping

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2/3 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 Tablespoon granulated sugar

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 425 °.

Caramel Sauce for Filling

  • Melt the butter in a medium saucepan. Stir in flour to form a paste. Add water, white sugar, and brown sugar. Bring to a boil. Reduce temperature and let simmer for 5 minutes.

Assembling Pie

  • Place the bottom crust in your pan. Fill with prepared sliced apples, mounded gently. Gently pour the sugar and butter caramel liquid over the crust. Pour slowly so that it does not run off.

Crumb topping

  • In a medium bowl mix softened butter, flour, cinnamon, and brown sugar. Using a pastry blender cut ingredients together until a small pea size crumble forms. You can use your fingers to finish combining to get an even smaller crumb.
  • Sprinkle crumb over the apple slices and caramel sauce, making sure topping goes to the edges. Sprinkle with One Tablespoon of Sugar.
  • Place the pie on a foil lined baking sheet. (This will help keep your oven sparkling clean!)
  • Bake 15 minutes in the preheated oven. Reduce temperature to 350° and continue baking for 35- 45 minutes, until apples are soft and topping is golden brown and crisp.
