This is a very popular and classic apple pie with a golden, crispy crust and sweet-tart apple filling. It's super delicious when served with custard or ice cream! Homemade pie crust is a hundred times tastier than store-bought, so give it a try!

Pie Crust Method: In a large bowl, mix the flour and sugar. Add the butter (cut into small pieces) and use your hands to crumble the butter into the flour until it forms a grainy texture.
3

Gradually add water, forming a dough (you may not need all the water; if the dough is too dry, add a little water; if too wet, add some flour). Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for one hour.
4

Slice the apples thinly, then mix with the remaining filling ingredients.
5

Divide the dough into two portions and roll out into thin sheets (about 1/8 inch thick). Place one sheet into an 8-inch pie pan.
6

Pour in the apple filling, spread evenly, then cover with the other pie crust sheet and seal the edges.
7

Brush the pie crust with egg wash, sprinkle with sugar, and make a few slits on the surface. Bake in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for about 55-60 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the apples are tender (if the surface browns too quickly, cover with aluminum foil to prevent burning).
8

Let the apple pie cool for at least 30 minutes before serving. *I used an 8-inch pie pan.
