Easy Apple Pie has a thick layer of seasoned apples in a flaky pie crust. 

This satisfying dessert is quick and easy to make with simple ingredients. 

Perfect for when you need a sweet treat to satisfy the proverbial sweet tooth.  

 

 

 

THE PIE CRUST

For this recipe, I used a store-bought pie crust because it saves time and tastes good.  Perfect for quick preparation of dinner and dessert. 

 

APPLE PIE FILLING

This recipe calls for two cans (20 ounces each) of apple pie filling.

THE FLAVORING

This recipe calls for 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract and 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg. 

Excellent alternatives for traditional ground cinnamon in my opinon. 

 

Pure Vanilla Extract

 

Ground cinnamon can be substituted for ground nutmeg if that’s what you prefer.
