Easy Skillet Apple Pie
INGREDIENTS:
2 sheets of refrigerator pie dough - allow to come to room temperature for about 15 min.
6 Tbls. butter
1 cup packed brown sugar
1 and 1/2 tsp. cinnamon, divided
2 Tbls. granulated white sugar
5 apples peeled, cored and thinly sliced - I used Fuji apples
1/4 tsp. salt
1 tsp. fresh squeezed lemon juice
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. In a 10-12 inch oven safe skillet, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Add the brown sugar and 1 tsp. of cinnamon to the skillet, and mix well. Cook sugar mixture for about 2 minutes, then add the apples, and mix well to coat the apples completely.
Sprinkle the apple mixture with salt and lemon juice.
Mix well and then remove from heat.
Unroll the 2 room temp pie dough and cover the apples with crusts. They crusts will overlap. Push the edges of the dough into the skillet. Do not pinch the pie dough on to the skillet, just tuck the edges down the inside of the skillet. Sprinkle the entire top of the dough evenly with the white sugar and cinnamon. If using a shallow skillet, put the skillet on a foil-lined baking sheet to catch anything that might bubble over the edge of the skillet.
Bake for about 30 minutes or until the crust is nicely browned.
Let cool before serving...if you can wait that long!
