Apple pie, one of our favorite desserts here at Green String Farm, especially when made with our farm fresh Green String Apples! This recipe is sugar free and still completely delicious..Make sure to tell us your favorite takes on the classic apple pie!
Ingredients:
  • 6 cups sliced apples
  • 1 tablespoon cinnamon
  • 3 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1 1/2 tablespoon lemon juice
  • Pinch of salt
  • Pie Shell
Crumble Topping:
  • 1 cup (140 g) all purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 8 tablespoons (112 g) unsalted butter, melted and cooled
  • 1/2 cup chopped Green String Almonds
Directions: 
Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees. Although we usually would make our own pie crust, sometimes you don't have the time. This time we decided to use a pre-made pie shell. Cut peeled apples into thin wedges and put into a large bowl. Stir in lemon juice. In a small bowl, combine  cinnamon, cornstarch and salt. Add this mixture to the bowl of apples and stir to coat. Dump into pie plate with bottom crust. Put crumble topping on top of apple filling. Bake pie on the bottom rack for 7 minutes, then move to the middle rack, placing pie on a metal baking sheet to catch spills. Reduce heat to 350 degrees and bake for additional 40 minutes or until juices are bubbling and crust is nicely browned. Then remove from oven and let rest for 1 hour on a wire rack. 
Crumble:
 In a medium-sized bowl, place the flour, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt, and whisk to combine. Add the butter and chopped almonds, and mix to combine well. Place the bowl in the refrigerator to chill for about 10 minutes or until firm (or the freezer for about 5 minutes).
