Scale
- 1 1/2 cups (149g) flour
- 2 tsp (8g) sugar
- 1/2 tsp (2.5g) salt
- 1/2 cup (118mL) vegetable oil
- 2 Tbsp (30mL) milk
- 6-8 apples
- 1/2 cup (96g) sugar
- 2 Tbsp (12g) flour
- 1 tsp (2.5g) cinnamon
- 1/2 cup (113g) butter, softened
- 1/2 cup (96g) brown sugar
- 1 cup (100g) oats
- 1/2 cup (64g) chopped nuts (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- For the easy crust, mix together 1 1/2 cups flour, 2 tsp sugar, and 1/2 tsp salt in a bowl. Add 1/2 cup vegetable oil and 2 Tbsp milk, mixing until combined. Pat the dough evenly into a pie pan.
- For the filling, peel, core, and chop 6-8 apples into large chunks. In a large bowl, mix the apple chunks with 1/2 cup sugar, 2 Tbsp flour, and 1 tsp cinnamon until the apples are well coated. Pour the apple mixture into the prepared pie crust.
- For the streusel topping, in a separate bowl, combine 1/2 cup softened butter, 1/2 cup brown sugar, 1 cup oats, and 1/2 cup chopped nuts (if using). Mix until crumbly and evenly distribute over the apple filling.
- Bake the pie in the preheated oven for about 1 hour, or until the topping is golden brown and the apples are tender when pierced with a fork.
- Allow the pie to cool slightly before serving to let the filling set.
Notes
The pie crust is a simple pat-in-the-pan type, eliminating the need for rolling. The streusel topping adds a buttery, crunchy texture. You can substitute different types of apples for varied flavor and texture. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a classic touch.
