Instructions

1. Preheat Oven

• Preheat to 190°C / 375°F.

2. Prepare the Filling

• In a bowl, toss sliced apples with sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, lemon juice, and flour.

• Spread the apple butter evenly over the bottom of the pie crust.

• Arrange the seasoned apple slices on top of the apple butter layer.

3. Make the Crumble

• In a medium bowl, combine flour, oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt.

• Cut in the cold butter using fingers or a pastry cutter until the mixture forms coarse crumbs.

4. Assemble the Pie

• Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the apples.

• Press lightly so it adheres but remains crumbly.

5. Bake

• Bake for 45–55 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the apples are tender.

• If the edges brown too fast, cover them loosely with foil.

6. Cool

• Let the pie cool for 1–2 hours so the filling sets properly before slicing.
