Ingredients
  

  • 1 box store-bought pie crust
  • 4-5 small or medium-sized apples thinly sliced
  • 1 teaspoon of cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup of granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon of butter melted (Or soften is okay as well)
  • 1/2 teaspoon of pumpkin spice mix
  • 1 tablespoon of water
  • 1 Egg for egg wash

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius). Also, follow the directions on the pie crust packaging, as oven temperatures may vary.
  • Gently unroll the store-bought pie crust onto a lightly floured surface.
  • Place the thinly sliced apples in a large mixing bowl and sprinkle them with cinnamon, pumpkin spice mix, butter, and granulated sugar.
  • Toss the apples gently to ensure they are evenly coated with the cinnamon, pumpkin spice mix, butter, and sugar mixture.
  • Arrange the coated apple slices in the middle of the pie crust, leaving a 1 – 1 1/2-inch border around the edges.
  • Do NOT pour the liquid from the apple mixture onto the pie crust. Save it and put it off to the side for later use.
  • Fold the edges of the pie crust over the apples, pleating as you go along.
  • Now, using a pastry brush, lightly brush the edges of the pie crust with the egg wash.
  • Pop the pie into the oven and bake for about 35-40 minutes, or until the crust turns golden brown and the apples are tender when pierced with a fork.
  • While the pie is baking, take the saved liquid from the apple mixture and pour it into a small saucepan. Heat it over low heat, stirring occasionally, until it thickens into a syrup-like consistency.
  • Once the pie is done baking, please remove it from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes.
  • Drizzle the thickened syrup over the baked apple pie for extra flavor and sweetness.
  • Now, your open-faced apple pie with a store-bought crust is ready to be enjoyed!
