3. 3

   In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, salt, and 1/2 cup granulated sugar.

    Crimp the edges of the pie with a fork to create a decorative border.

    If using, sprinkle the crumb topping over the pie and continue baking for an additional 5-10 minutes.

💡 Pro Tips

Make sure to use a 9-inch pie dish, as this size pie is optimal for this recipe. Store any leftover pie in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. Avoid overbaking the pie, as this can cause the apples to become dry and the crust to become too dark.
