Tips For Your First Time Making Apple Pie

While this apple pie recipe is simple, beginner bakers may want to consider these tips:

  • Read the recipe through completely before beginning. This will help you familiarize yourself with the ingredients and steps involved.
  • Gather all of your ingredients and tools before beginning. This will help the baking process go more smoothly.
  • Preheat your oven before getting started. This will help ensure that your pie cooks evenly.
  • Follow the recipe to the letter. Do not try to change it. With baking, even a small change can result in an entirely different outcome.
  • Be patient. Baking takes time, so do not be tempted to open the oven door frequently in order to check on the progress of your pie. Every time you do, heat escapes and can cause your pie to become overcooked or uneven.
  • Choose the right apples: While you can use any type of apple that you like, firmer apples are better for baking because they hold their shape and don’t turn to mush when cooked. Granny Smith apples are a good choice, but you can also use Honeycrisp, Golden Delicious, or Braeburn apples.
  • Let your pie cool completely before serving: This will give the filling time to set up so that it isn’t runny when you slice into it.
