The BEST Apple Pie Recipe

This easy to make and delicious apple pie recipe has a flakey butter crust and tender apple filling that’s bursting with flavor and perfectly sweet! Instead of adding lots of flour or cornstarch to thicken the filling I cook the juices down into an apple caramel, which holds all those apple pieced together and really amps up the flavor and makes a tasty pie!

Hi Everyone! I had a dad brain moment and said room temperature butter for the crust but of course it should be cold, the card is correct. I really hope you get a chance to make this recipe.

It's taken me 3 days and I'm almost ready to put this fab looking pie in the oven. Day 1 make the pastry, Day 2 make filling, Day 3 Roll out and assemble. I'm very old 85 yrs so I take everything in slow stages. Oh boy, I am looking forward to this. I did think a quarter-inch pastry was a bit thick. Here in the UK, a pie is praised if the pastry is thin but hey let's go the USA way.

I hate it when people write rude remarks, if you don’t like the video, don’t watch it. He’s great.

When he pushed the bowl of apples aside my heart dropped. I am so jealous of that counter space

Last year I made this pie and my 92 year old grandfather said it was the best pie he's ever had in his life.

I have only made the old fashioned Betty Crocker pie all my life. Your pie was so pretty I gave it a try. I made 2 pies. I never tasted the 1st one cause I’m trying to fit into my wardrobe better. But I assembled the 2nd pie today for our 53rd Anniversary. Today I did have a piece. OMG, the best pie I’ve ever eaten. Never made a lattice crust before either. So very pretty. 🎉🎉🎉 I’d send a picture but I don’t know how. My pie is just as pretty. Thank U Thank U Thank U. I’m 75 & just changed the way I make pie. My only change was I picked green apples off our tree so I didn’t add lemon. Also took me 2days. Let the filling cool in the frig overnight. It was fun. Like working on a piece of artwork. It made me happy.🥰❤️❤️❤️

I made this! My first ever apple pie, I have some tips for people like me who haven't ever made pie before:
1. Make sure the dough is a circle before you refrigerate, I absentmindedly made it a square and it was struggle to roll it out to cover the pan.
2. Don't let it sit out the fridge too long if you're in a warm climate, flour the surface well and roll asap or it will get sticky and crumble.
This was very good by the way. Everyone loved the crust, very delicious, I'll always make this crust recipe even for other pies.

John, even though you posted this three years ago, just want to say thanks once again for creating these videos. I've made several of your recipes and I appreciate the time and effort it takes for you to not only find and refine the best recipes but for giving us such clear instructions. The work that you and your cameraman 😊put into this content is a big help to those of us who love to be in our kitchens!

I made this today! Its the best apple pie i've ever made! Amazing!!! I've been doing apple pies for my family for about 13 years ( i'm 27 lol) and its the best one at the time, thanks! Greetings from El Salvador, Central América.

[Cmonmanny]

I just followed your recipe.... and omg the best apple pie I ever had and made !! This is my second time making a pie ever!!! And the difference in recipes and apples made such a huge difference for me. Thank you so much

[yummymellon]

I just can't get enough of his videos... So positive and encouraging... He made it looks like everything is possible and not to mention while being extremely realistic.
And thank you for the lattice tutorial.. I never made them before and now I know how to lay them around together. I'm from Asian country.. Pie isn't really our thing hence why I never made one in my whole life..
P/S : I dunno why some people would hate on you cause I always found your video to be my safe haven.. Heart warming and fun at the same time. It's entertaining for me to watch. Keep up the good work preppy. ☺️

[llamalianna]

This was the best pie tutorial I’ve ever seen! I love your positivity and clear, simple explanations. So excited to try this!!

[leilaeissa]

You need to write a cookbook and we will all buy it

[rosemattle]

Can you make your own cook book? I would so buy it!!

What do you use if you don't have a lid for your pan?

I made this recipe last night, the whole apple pie from scratch and the flavor was mind blowing, wish I can add a picture, the result was pure perfection. Thank you so much!

[Mandy-lcwe]
