Easy Lattice Top Apple Pie Tutorial. I think everyone loves Apple Pie. They are always a crowd pleaser and a beautiful one steals the show. The lattice top is probably what intimidates everyone, it looks so hard, but it is so easy.
Let’s get busy and make one, shall we? I am making this simple and using ready-made crust.
Peel all the apples _ I used 8 for a 9″ pie. Then sprinkle 1/2 c. sugar. 1/2 c. brown sugar, 3 tbl, flour, and 2 tbl. cinnamon on top and stir to coat all the apples.
Place the 1st piecrust in the pie plate making sure to have plenty to cover the edges.
place half the apples in the shell and dot all over with butter, then add the remaining apples.
take the second shell and using a pizza cutter cut into strips about 1/2 inch wide.
I first placed 7 strips over the pie leaving space in between each strip. Now to make the lattice. Take every other strip and fold it back. Place a strip across it right down the middle of the pie, then fold the strips back over this center strip.
To add the next strip fold back the next row of strips.
now place another strip on one side and fold the strips back over it. You can see the lattice is starting to form.
continue doing the same thing alternating stripes on both sides and continuing the lattice design.
all done. Now we just have to take care of the edges. Fold the bottom crust over the edges of the lattice strips.
then crimp them in a pretty design. sprinkle some sugar over the top and put it in the oven at 375 degrees. Bake for approximately 1 hour and 15 minutes or until the filling is nice and bubbly and the crust is perfectly browned. If the edge crust starts to get too brown, cover it lightly with foil.
Now if this doesn’t steal the show, then there’s a problem.
