For best results, use a high-quality store-bought or homemade pie crust. If the crust begins to brown too quickly during baking, tent the pie loosely with foil. Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra touch of indulgence. Feel free to experiment with other types of nuts, such as walnuts or almonds. You can add a pinch of nutmeg or allspice to the apple filling for added warmth.

01 Step
Recipe View Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). On a lightly floured surface, gently unroll or roll out your pie crusts. Set aside. (5 minutes)
02 Step
Recipe View In a large bowl, toss the apple slices with lemon juice to prevent browning and add a touch of brightness. (5 minutes)
03 Step
Recipe View In a small bowl, combine 1/4 cup brown sugar, melted butter, and corn syrup. Spread this caramel mixture evenly across the bottom of a 9-inch pie dish (glass or ceramic works best for even heat distribution). Sprinkle the chopped pecans evenly over the caramel base. (5 minutes)
04 Step

06 Step
Recipe View Arrange half of the apple slices in an even layer over the crust in the pie dish. Sprinkle with half of the brown sugar mixture. Repeat with the remaining apple slices and brown sugar mixture. (10 minutes)
07 Step
Recipe View Top with the remaining pie crust. Fold the top edge of the crust under the bottom crust, crimping decoratively to seal. Cut a few slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape during baking. (10 minutes)
08 Step
Recipe View Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the caramel is bubbling around the edges. (55 minutes)
09 Step
Recipe View Let the pie stand for 5 minutes to allow the caramel to slightly set. Loosen the edges of the pie crust with a knife. Carefully invert the pie onto a serving dish. (5 minutes)
10 Step
Recipe View Serve warm, and enjoy the delightful combination of sweet caramel, tart apples, and crunchy pecans!
