Streusel Crumb Topped Apple Pie - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 unbaked 9-inch pie shell, frozen, preferably a name brand
3 large granny smith apples, peeled, cored, and thinly sliced
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1 tablespoon flour
Streusel Topping
1 cup flour
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup butter, softened

Preparation

Preheat oven at 375 degrees with a cookie sheet on the center rack. Mix peeled and sliced apples in a large bowl with sugar, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and flour.
Pour apple mixture into frozen pie crust.
Make the streusel crumb topping by mixing together with a fork in a medium bowl the flour, cinnamon, and light brown sugar. Then mix in the softened butter with a fork, stirring and blending until the mixture resembles crumbs.
Top the pie with the crumb topping, place on the cookie sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 40 - 45 minutes until the crust is a deep golden brown and the filling bubbles.
Remove from oven, cool 30 minutes and serve warm with ice cream and caramel ice cream topping drizzled over pie, if desired.
