Caramel Pecan Apple Pie

This is, hands down, the best apple pie in the world.  I don't make it all that often because I have a hard time not eating the entire thing.  Even people who don't love apple pie, looooove this apple pie. 

Caramel Pecan Apple Pie
From the Pioneer Woman

  • 1 whole Pie Crust
  • 6 cups (to 7 Cups) Peeled and sliced apples (I like gala, but granny smith is good too)
  • ½ whole (juice Of) Lemon
  • ½ cups Sugar
  • 4 Tablespoons Flour
  • ¼ teaspoons Salt
  • ½ cups Flour
  • 1-½ stick Butter
  • 1 cup Brown Sugar
  • ½ cups Quick Oats
  • ¼ teaspoons Salt
  • ½ cups Pecans, Chopped
  • ½ jars (or More) Caramel Topping

Preparation Instructions

In a bowl mix peeled apples, lemon juice, sugar, flour and ¼ teaspoon salt. Set aside. For crumb topping, cut the butter into the flour with a pastry cutter, then add in brown sugar, oats, and ¼ teaspoon salt.
Add apples to prepared pie shell and top with crumb topping. Cover crust edges with aluminum foil and bake in a 375 degree oven for 25 minutes. Remove foil from crust and place back into the oven for another 30 minutes. Chop pecans, and when five minutes remain, sprinkle them over the pie. Finish baking.
Remove the pie from the oven and pour ½ jar of caramel topping over the top. Allow to cool slightly before serving.
