🥧 Classic Homemade Apple Pie with Apple Pie Spice Blend

There’s something truly magical about the smell of a classic apple pie baking in the oven. Warm, buttery pastry filled with sweet apples and our Apple Pie Spice Blend makes every bite taste like autumn comfort. This easy, fail-proof recipe is perfect for family dinners, festive gatherings, or just when you crave that nostalgic aroma of cinnamon and clove filling your kitchen.

🧾 Ingredients

  • 2 ready-rolled shortcrust pastry sheets
  • 6 apples (Braeburn or Granny Smith), peeled and sliced
  • 2–3 tbsp caster sugar (adjust to sweetness)
  • 2 tsp Apple Pie Spice Blend
  • 1 tbsp plain flour
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 egg, beaten (for glaze)

👩‍🍳 Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 200°C (180°C fan). Line a 23cm pie dish with one pastry sheet.
  2. In a large bowl, toss the sliced apples with sugar, flour, lemon juice, and Apple Pie Spice Blend until well coated.
  3. Fill the pie shell with the apple mixture. Top with the second pastry sheet, trim and crimp the edges, and cut small slits for steam.
  4. Brush with beaten egg and bake for 40–45 minutes until golden brown and bubbling at the edges.
  5. Allow to cool for at least 15 minutes before slicing and serving.

🍨 Serving Suggestions

Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, custard, or whipped cream. For extra flavour, sprinkle a pinch of Apple Pie Spice Blend over the top just before serving.
