Apple Pie

A week ago we went to the apple orchard and I bought a peck of Cameo Apples.  This is the first time that I've gotten this type of apple. 

These apples have a creamy yellow skin with red stripes, the apples were crisp and juicy and the flavor is the perfect balance between sweet and tart, with a hint of citrus and honey.

I made some apple pies using these apples and they were very good.  I'll share my super easy yet super delicious pie recipe with you.

Apple Pie
Source: Me

1 package of Pillsbury pre-made pie crusts
4-5 large cameo apples (it will take more if you have smaller apples)
3/4 cup flour
1 cup sugar
1 cup brown sugar
2 tsp cinnamon
2 tbsp butter
milk
Penzey's Cinnamon Sugar
Penzey's Vanilla Sugar

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.  Peel and cut apples into small bite sized pieces.  Put one of the pie crusts in your deep dish pie pan.  In a large bowl mix flour, sugar, brown sugar, and cinnamon.  Then add the apples and stir well to coat the apples.  Put the apples in the pie dish. Sprinkle remaining sugar mixture over the apples.  Cut the butter into pats and put over the top of your apples.  Then add the top crust and seal the edges.  Take a pastry brush and lightly brush the top of your crust with milk.  Sprinkle lightly with cinnamon sugar and vanilla sugar.  Then use a fork to make several slits in the top of the crust.  Bake 45-55 minutes.
