Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 5 Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored, quartered and thinly sliced
  • 3 (9") refrigerated pre-rolled pie crusts (need 2 boxes)
  • 1 cup sugar, divided
  • 2 tea. cinnamon, divided
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 Tbsp. butter, cut into small chunks

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Place 1/2 cup butter into a heavy cast iron skillet, and melt butter in the oven. Remove skillet and sprinkle with brown sugar; return to oven to heat while you prepare the apples.

Remove skillet, and place 1 refrigerated pie crust on top of the brown sugar. Top the crust with half the sliced apples. Sprinkler apples with 1/2 cup sugar and 1 tea. cinnamon; place a second crust over the apples; top with the remaining apples, 1/2 cup sugar and 1 tea. cinnamon. Top with the third crust; sprinkle the top crust with 1/4 cup sugar, and dot with 1 Tbsp. butter. Cut 4 slits into the top crust for steam.

Bake in the preheated oven until the apples are tender and the crust is golden brown, about 45 minutes.

Serve warm.
