For a richer flavor, consider adding a tablespoon of lemon juice to the apple mixture. If the crust begins to brown too quickly, tent the pie loosely with aluminum foil during the last 15 minutes of baking. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for the ultimate indulgence.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPreheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). (5 minutes)
02
StepShred or thinly slice the unpeeled apples into a large bowl. (10 minutes)
03
StepAdd the sugar, cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg to the apples. Toss gently to ensure the apples are evenly coated with the spices. (5 minutes)
04
StepPlace one pie crust in the bottom of a deep-dish pie pan. Gently transfer the spiced apple mixture into the crust. Dot the top of the apples evenly with the cubed, cold butter. (5 minutes)
05
StepOn a lightly floured surface, unfold or roll out the second pie crust. Use leaf or apple-shaped cookie cutters to cut out decorative shapes from the crust. (10 minutes)
06
StepArrange the cutouts attractively over the top of the pie, leaving small gaps between each cutout to allow steam to escape during baking. (5 minutes)
07
StepBake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. (30 minutes)
08
StepRemove the pie from the oven and brush the decorative crust with the melted butter, ensuring even coverage. (2 minutes)
09
StepReturn the pie to the oven and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the apple filling is bubbling. Place a sheet of aluminum foil on the rack below the pie to catch any drips. (20 minutes)
10
StepLet the pie cool completely on a wire rack before serving to allow the filling to set. (2 hours)
