Total time: 1 h 10 min
Yield: 1 pie (8 servings)
Cuisine: American
Ingredients: 1 package of pre-made pie crusts; 6 cups of peeled and sliced apples (such as Granny Smith or Honeycrisp); 1/2 cup of granulated sugar; 1/4 cup of brown sugar; 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon; 1/2 teaspoon of ground nutmeg; 1/4 teaspoon of salt; 1 tablespoon of lemon juice; 1/2 cup of chopped macadamia nuts; 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter, cut into small pieces; 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash); Optional: vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for serving

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and place one pie crust in a 9-inch pie dish, pressing it firmly against the bottom and sides. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced apples, granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, and lemon juice. Toss the mixture until the apples are evenly coated.
Pour the apple mixture into the prepared pie crust, spreading it out into an even layer. Sprinkle the chopped macadamia nuts on top of the apples.
Dot the apples with the small pieces of butter, distributing them evenly across the top of the pie filling.
Lay the second pie crust over the filled pie, crimping the edges to seal. Cut a few slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape during baking. You can also create a decorative lattice pattern if desired.
Brush the top crust with the beaten egg to create a golden-brown finish.
Place the pie on a baking sheet to catch any drips, then bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
Once baked, remove the pie from the oven and let it cool for at least 30 minutes before slicing. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream, if desired.
