Apple Pie with Crumble Topping

Apple pie:
1 9-inch unbaked pie crust
6-8 medium apples (I prefer Granny Smith)
1/2 c. sugar
1-2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp nutmeg
2 TBSP flour
1/4 tsp vanilla

Mix apples, sugar cinnamon, nutmeg, flour, and vanilla. Let sit 5-10 minutes. Pour into unbaked pie crust. Top with crumble topping (below). Bake at 400 degrees for 50-55 minutes.

Crumble topping:
1/4 c. butter
1/4 c. packed brown sugar
1/2 c. flour

Mix flour and brown sugar. Cut butter into flour/sugar mixture until crumbly. Sprinkle topping over pie. Bake at 400 degrees for 50-55 minutes.

TIP: place pie plate on a cookie sheet when baking to prevent apple filling from running over the sides and ending up on the bottom of the oven.
