The Best apple pie with canned apple pie filling recipe

I love using canned apple pie filling for this recipe because it saves so much time without sacrificing taste. My kids always ask for this pie during the fall, and it is a staple at our family dinners. It is a perfect dessert for busy weeknights or special occasions, and using canned filling means you get consistent sweetness and texture every time. Plus, apples are a good source of fiber and vitamin C, so I feel a little better about serving this treat.

🥘Ingredients

For the Crust

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup cold unsalted butter, cubed
1/4 cup ice water

For the Filling

1 can (21 ounces) apple pie filling
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

For Topping

1 egg, beaten
1 tablespoon sugar

👨‍🍳Directions

1Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
2In a large bowl, mix the flour and salt. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture looks like coarse crumbs.
3Add the ice water one tablespoon at a time, stirring until the dough comes together. Divide the dough in half, shape into discs, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
4On a floured surface, roll out one disc of dough to fit your pie dish. Place it in the dish and trim the edges.
5In a bowl, combine the apple pie filling, lemon juice, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Pour the mixture into the crust.
6Roll out the second disc of dough and place it over the filling. Crimp the edges to seal, and cut a few slits in the top crust to let steam escape.
7Brush the top crust with the beaten egg and sprinkle with sugar.
8Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. Let the pie cool for at least 2 hours before serving.
