Apple pie is a classic fall dessert. When Jason and I first got married I started testing new recipes. My favorite place to look up recipes was Allrecipes.com I loved how you can look up any recipe and read reviews and find the best one.

When it came time to make an apple pie, I came across this Grandma Ople Apple Pie recipe with over 10,000 five star reviews, so thought I would give it a try!

Grandma Ople’s Apple Pie

  • 1 recipe pastry for a 9 inch double crust pie
  • ½ cup unsalted butter
  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour 
  • ¼ cup water
  • ½ cup white sugar 
  • ½ cup packed brown sugar
  • 8 Granny Smith apples – peeled, cored and sliced
  1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F
  2. Melt the butter in a saucepan. Stir in flour to form a paste.
  3. Add water, white sugar and brown sugar, and bring to a boil. Reduce temperature and let simmer.
  4. Place the bottom crust in your pan. Fill with apples, mounded slightly.
  5. Cover with a lattice work crust.
  6. Gently pour the sugar and butter liquid over the crust. Pour slowly so that it does not run off.
  7. Bake 15 minutes in the preheated oven.
  8. Reduce the temperature to 350 degrees F. Continue baking for 35 to 45 minutes, until apples are soft.
