Ingredients

1 pie crust homemade or store bought
1 recipe apple pie filling
1/2 cup cold butter cut into cubes
1 cup all purpose flour
2/3 cup brown sugar packed

Instructions

Prepare the apple pie filling according to recipe instructions. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
Place a 9 inch pie plate on a sheet pan. Fit the pie crust into the pan, fluting the edges of the crust. Alternatively, you can use a frozen pie crust that's already in a pan (no need to thaw it).
Pour the pie filling into the crust.
Place the butter, flour and brown sugar in a bowl. Use two forks or a pastry blender to cut the butter into the flour and sugar until coarse crumbs form.
Sprinkle the crumb mixture over the pie.
Bake the pie for 45-50 minutes, or until crust and topping are deep golden brown. Cool for at least 20 minutes, then serve.

Notes

This pie can be made up to 2 days before you plan to serve it. I recommend serving your pie with a scoop of ice cream on top.
When you are making your streusel topping, make sure the butter is cold and right out of the refrigerator. The cold butter helps create the little crumbles of streusel that make a good, even topping.
