Apple Pie for Father's Day

Yesterday was Father's Day and my dad loves apple pie, so why not bring him a delicious apple pie to celebrate this special day. 
Let's get started!!!! 
The first thing I got was my pie crust, I bought it at Walmart (it's easier then making it yourself) and it brings two crusts. 

Ingredients:

1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
6 to 7 sliced apples
1 tablespoon lemon juice
Pastry for double-crust pie (9 inches)
2 tablespoon butter
1 egg white
Additional sugar

Directions:

In a small bowl, combine the sugars, flour and spices; set aside. In a large bowl, toss apples with lemon juice. Add sugar mixture; toss to coat.
Line a 9-in. pie plate with bottom crust; trim pastry even with edge. Fill with apple mixture; dot with butter.

Using a pastry cutter, cut an even number of strips from the remaining rolled out dough. Transfer every other strip to the pie top and weave in the lattice by folding every other strip back onto itself and laying another strip perpendicularly. Fold the strips back across and repeat until completed.

Beat egg white until foamy; brush over pastry. Sprinkle with sugar and cinnamon. Cover edges loosely with foil.

Bake at 375° for 25 minutes. Remove foil and bake 20-25 minutes longer or until crust is golden brown and filling is bubbly. Cool on a wire rack.
AHHHH!!! So yummy!!:) 

Everyone liked my pie and I liked it too, it was delicious and I have to mention that it was my first time making it. We served it with vanilla ice cream on the side. 


Enjoy your day and happy cooking!!!!
