Apple Pie (with crumb top)

Ingredients:

1 frozen pie crust

Filling:
3 Granny Smith apples
2 Gala Apples
2 Tbsp Flour
3/4 c Sugar
1/4 c Brown Sugar
1/2 tsp Nutmeg
1 1/2 Tbsp Cinnamon
pinch of Salt
1 1/2 tsp lemon juice

Topping:
1 cup Unbleached Flour
1/2 cup Brown Sugar
1/2 cup Unsalted Butter (softened)

Filling: Peel and core the apples and cut them into somewhat thin slices. Then pour the lemon juice over them. In a bowl mix flour, sugars, nutmeg, cinnamon, and salt. Then pour over apples and mix with hands until all apples are thoroughly coated. Pour the apple filling into the pie crust.

Topping: In a medium bowl, mix together the sugar and flour. Mix in butter with a fork or stand mixer just until the topping is crumbly. Place topping on filling, cover the edges of the pie crust with aluminum foil (shiny side out) and bake at 400 for 40-45 minutes.
