Servings: 16 servings

Ingredients

  • 2 sheets (1 package) refrigerated puff pastry pie crust
  • 6 large or 8 medium apples (I used gala), peeled and very thinly sliced
  • 1 cup sugar
  • ¼ cup brown sugar
  • 2 tsp cinnamon
  • ¼ cup flour
  • ½ tsp ground nutmeg
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • 1 tsp vanilla

Streusel Topping

  • 4 tbsp cold butter cut into cubes
  • ½ cup flour
  • cup brown sugar
  • 1 tsp cinnamon

Glaze

  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tbsp pure maple syrup (see note)
  • ½ tsp maple extract (see note)
  • 2-4 tbsp milk as needed

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees and lightly grease an 18x13 inch sheet pan.
  • Unroll the pie crusts. Place one on top of the other and use a rolling pin to roll out to 1/8 inch thick. Lay crust on the sheet pan and press into the edges of the pan.
  • In a large bowl whisk together sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon , flour, nutmeg, salt, and vanilla. Add apples and toss to coat.
  • Spread apple mixture evenly on top of the crust.
  • Prepare the crumb mixture by whisking together flour, sugar, and cinnamon. Add the cubed butter and cut in with a fork or pastry cutter ( you can also smoosh it in with your fingers) til butting is dispersed throughout the sugar mixture. Sprinkle even over the apples.
  • Bake for 40-45 minutes until the streusel topping starts browning and the apples are fork-tender.
  • While pie is baking, prepare the glaze by mixing together the powdered sugar, maple syrup, maple extract, and enough milk to reach a pourable consistency.
  • Drizzle glaze over the pie, cut into squares, and serve alone or topped with vanilla ice cream.

Notes

Glaze: For the glaze, you can omit the maple syrup and maple extract and replace with 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
