Ingredients

1 (9 inch) frozen pie shell
Apple Filling:
5 cups apples - peeled, cored, and sliced 1/4 inch (Granny Smith)
1 Tbsp lime or lemon juice
2 Tbsp all-purpose flour
2/3 cup white sugar
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
1/4 tsp ground allspice
2 Tbsp unsalted butter
Streusel Topping:
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
3/4 cup rolled oats
1 tsp lemon zest
1/2 cup butter

Directions

Preheat oven to 425F. Fit pastry shell into pie pan and place in freezer.
To Make Apple Filling:
Place apple slices and lemon or lime juice in a large bowl and toss.
In a separate bowl combine 2 Tbsp flour, white sugar, 1/2 tsp cinnamon, nutmeg, and allspice. Mix well, then add to apples. Toss until apples are evenly coated.
Divide your two Tbsp of butter into six or eight pieces.
Remove the pie shell from the freezer. Place the apple mixture in the pie shell and dot it with your pieces of butter.
Lay a sheet of aluminum foil lightly on top of the filling, but do not seal.
Bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes.
Streusel Topping:
In a medium bowl combine flour, cinnamon, brown sugar, oats, and lemon peel.
Cut in 1/2 cup butter into little pieces. With your hands mix butter with the other ingredients until it looks crumbly.
Remove the shell with apple filling from the oven and evenly distribute the streusel on top.
Reduce heat to 375F. Bake an additional 40 to 45 minutes, until the streusel is browned, and the apples are tender.
If the streusel starts getting too brown, cover loosely with aluminum foil.
Take it out of the oven and let it rest for a couple of hours (if possible…)
