Instructions
-
In a large bowl using a rubber spatula or wooden spoon, stir the apples, lemon juice, flour, cloves, nutmeg, cinnamon, sugar, and vanilla extract together until thoroughly combined.
-
Set filling aside as the oven preheats.
-
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (204 degrees C).
-
On a floured work surface, roll out one of the discs of chilled dough. Turn the dough about a quarter turn after every few rolls until you have a circle 12 inches in diameter.
-
Carefully place the dough into a 9×2-inch pie dish. Tuck it in with your fingers, making sure it is smooth. Spoon the apple filling into the crust, leaving some of the liquid in the bowl.
-
Use a small paring knife to trim excess dough off the edges. Flute the edges.
Crumble Topping:
-
In a medium bowl, combine the brown sugar, cinnamon, flour, and walnuts. Using a rubber spatula, stir in the butter.
-
The crumble topping will be thick and crumbly. Sprinkle over apples.
-
Place the pie onto a large baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes. Keeping the pie in the oven, turn the temperature down to 37 degrees F (190 degrees C) and bake for an additional 30 to 35 minutes.
-
After the first 20 minutes of bake time, place a pie crust shield on top of the pie to prevent the edges from browning too quickly.
-
Allow the pie to cool for 3 full hours at room temperature before serving.
-
Serve with vanilla ice cream if desired. Cover pie leftovers tightly and store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
