Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Prepare the pie crust: Mix flour and salt, then cut in the butter until crumbly. Gradually add ice water and form a dough. Chill for 30 minutes.
Roll out the dough on a floured surface to fit a 9-inch deep-dish pie plate. Trim and crimp the edges, then refrigerate.
For the filling, toss apples with sugars, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Fill the crust with this mixture.
Combine the topping ingredients and sprinkle over the apples.
Bake for 50-55 minutes until golden. Tent with foil if the crust browns too quickly.
Cool on a wire rack for 2 hours before serving.
Variations & Tips:
Add chopped pecans or walnuts to the topping for a nutty twist.
Experiment with ground ginger or allspice in the apple mixture for extra flavor.
Use a store-bought pie crust for convenience, ensuring it’s deep enough.
Allow the pie to cool as recommended for the best texture.
Mix apple varieties for a balance of texture and sweetness.
Enjoy within a day or two for optimal taste and texture.
