FAQ 1: How can I prevent the bottom crust from becoming soggy?
To avoid a soggy bottom crust while baking the easy apple pie, you can blind bake the crust, meaning that you either partially or fully bake the pie crust without any filling (yet). Another tip from us is to sprinkle a thin layer of breadcrumbs or ground nuts on the crust before adding the apple filling, which will absorb any excess moisture.
FAQ 2: Should I always peel the apples for the pie?
In general, peeling the apples before baking the pie is advised. This ensures a smooth texture of the dessert, since the skins can become tough throughout the process of baking. However, if you prefer to have a more rustic apple pie at the end, you can also leave the skins on. As always, it is up to you what you choose to go with!
