Apple Crumble Pie

What better way to brighten up a cold and gloomy day than with mouthwatering apple pie! This is a very delicious recipe that will not only satisfy all kinds of crazy cravings, but will rock your world!

It takes roughly 10-15 minutes to prepare and about 45 minutes to bake.

Pie crust: I know this is cheating, but I bought a already-made frozen pie crust from Metro (make sure you buy the "select" brand to ensure that it is vegan)


 Filling:

• about 8 cups peeled, cored apple pieces (I used red apples)
• 3/4 cup white granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon corn starch
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
• 3 tablesoons water
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice

 

In a mixing bowl, mix the apple slices with the sugar, corn starch, cinnamon, nutmeg, water and lemon juice until evenly coated. Pour into the pie crust.

 

 

 

 

Crumble:

 

2 cups oats (quick oats)

1 & 3/4  cups white all-purpose flour

1 & 1/2 cups brown sugar

1/2 cup white granulated sugar

1/2 cup chopped walnuts

1/2 cup of raisins

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 cup melted earth balance butter (or any nondairy butter)

 

 

In a bowl mix the oats, flour, sugars, chopped walnuts, raisins, baking powder and baking soda until well combined. Add the melted earth balance butter, mixing until the mixture is consistent. Using your hands, crumble the mixture over the apple mixture.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Bake for roughly 45 mins @ 350 F - perfect dessert dish to serve a la Tofutti (nondairy icecream - if you haven't tried this, you absolutely MUST! It is so tasty!)
