Ingredients
  

  • 1 frozen or refrigerated deep dish pie crust

Pie Filling

  • 5-7 Granny Smith apples, peeled and thinly sliced
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 4 Tbsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 2 Tbsp corn starch

Pie Topping

  • 4 Tbsp cinnamon
  • 1 1/2 cups brown sugar
  • 1 cup slivered almonds
  • 4 Tbsp butter, cut into tiny pieces

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Prepare a 9" deep dish pie plate with a pre-made pie crust. In a large bowl, combine peeled and sliced apples, white sugar, 4 Tbsp cinnamon, vanilla, corn starch and water. Stir gently until apples are completed coated.
  • For the topping, stir together 4 Tbsp cinnamon, brown sugar, almonds, and butter. Mash the mixture into tiny pieces.
  • Gently mound apples into the pie crust until the pile is very tall. Carefully sprinkle the cinnamon-almond mixture over the apples.
  • Place pie plate on a rimmed cookie sheet to catch any liquid if the pie boils over. Bake for 45-60 minutes, until apples are tender and juice inside the pie crust is bubbling. If crust begins to burn, cover with a collar made of aluminum foil. Allow to cool for at least an hour before slicing. Enjoy!
