Cinnamon Apple Pie Recipe
Few things are so classically “Fall” as apple pie – and with the cinnamon sugar that this one has on top, your whole house will smell like a dream by the time you’re done baking!
Be sure to get good baking apples like McIntosh or Cortland as these are some of the best for baking pies. These are in season right now and easy to find at the grocery store if you don’t live near an orchard or farm stand.

Just took 2 of your apple pie recipes out of the oven and must confessed, scooped a bite! Yum – that is my professional opinion – Yum!
Will be making 2 more tomorrow and 3 go into the freezer for Thanksgiving. Will definitely save this recipe.
Thanks for your blog. Looking at organizing tips next.
I made this pie last weekend and it was fantastic. The flavor us great. The only problem I faced is that it was a dry pie. There wasn’t enough sauce. Like I said, the flavors were great but it just wasn’t very moist. Any suggestions?
You can use a little more butter to moisten the pie if you need to.
Made this today. …super easy…looked great. …was delicious! Thanks….
So about how many apples did you use?
I used between 6-8 medium sized apples for the recipe.
Do i peel the apples or just chop them?
Yes, you will need to peel and chop the apples. I have corrected the recipe. :)
Hi would it be okay to use this filling with a Dutch topping??
I haven’t personally tried it, but I would think it would be amazing! Let me know how it turns out if you try it. :)
Hi Kristi,
I bought a house that has an Anna apple tree that gave me an abundance of apples recently and I’m not a baker but I found your recipe and thought I would give it a try. Now everyone is requesting my apple pies. Even people that don’t like apple pie are loving this recipe. I use the Anna apples because I have so many and have even chopped and frozen some so that I can use throughout the year. I made one last night and one is in the oven and I am delivering both to friends today. Thank you for sharing your recipe.
