Servings: 8
Course: Dessert
Cuisine: American

Ingredients
  

  • 3 pounds of organic apples ( about 7 cups) such as a mix of Gala, Granny Smith, and MacIntosh
  • 2 vegan pie crusts
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 2 tablespoons flour
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon cold vegan butter
  • 2 teaspoons non-dairy milk
  • 1 teaspoon coarse sugar or granulated sugar

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 425*F. Line a pie plate with one pie crust.
  2. Mix sugar, flour, and cinnamon together in a small bowl.
  3. Peel, core, and chop apples into chunks. Place into a large bowl. Add sugar mixture and toss to coat apples.
  4. Spread apples into pie crust, mounding in the center.
  5. Grate cold butter over apples.
  6. Cover with 2nd crust, crimping both crusts together to seal, (or press together with a fork).
  7. Brush the top of the crust with milk and sprinkle with coarse sugar.
  8. Cut about 6 one-inch slits in the top of the crust to vent steam.
  9. Bake for 25 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 350*F and bake another 25-30 minutes longer. Cool on a wire rack.
