Serves 8 | Prep 30 Min | Cook 1 Hour

This recipe has all the essentials of a traditional apple pie, plus a bag of Aspen Crunch Grizzly Lake Granola for the perfect crunchy topping. Trust us, this is the only pie recipe you'll need this holiday season! 

Ingredients

• 1 Bag Grizzly Lake Granola
  
• 4 Pounds of Local Apples
  
• 1 Tablespoons Lemon Juice
  
• 1 Teaspoons Cinnamon
  
• 1/4 Teaspoons Cardamom
  
• 1/4 Teaspoons Cloves
  
• 1/2 Cup of Brown Unrefined Sugar
  
• 3 Tablespoons of Maple Syrup
  
• 2 Tablespoons Cornstarch
  

Instructions

• Make the pie dough a few hours or day prior.
  
• Pre-heat the oven to 400º F.
  
• Slice and core the apples into 1/8 to 1/4 in slices. Mix apples with brown sugar and maple syrup in a large bowl. Set the bowl with the apples aside.
  
• Roll out the pie dough and lightly press into a pie pan. Put the pie pan into the fridge.
  
• Add the cornstarch, lemon juice, vanilla extract, cinnamon, cardamom, cloves, sea salt, and to the apples and sugar. Toss well.
  
• Whisk an egg yolk with some water and brush onto pie crust. Pour filling into pie crust and put in the middle rack of the oven.
  
• Bake the pie about 45-55 minutes (until the crust browns). Take out and cover the top with Grizzly Lake Granola at about 40 minutes.
  
• Cool for 2-4 hours. Serve with ice cream and sprinkle with fleur de sel!
