Exquisite Apple Crumble Pie. Great recipe for Exquisite Apple Crumble Pie. I adapted the Dutch apple pie recipe I learned from my American father-in-law into this crumble apple pie. Once you eat this, you'll want to have it again and again.
Make the filling: In a large bowl using a rubber spatula or wooden spoon, stir the apples, lemon juice, flour, cloves, nutmeg, cinnamon, sugar, and vanilla extract together until thoroughly combined.
Set filling aside as the oven preheats; this time allows the apples to begin letting off their juice.
The difference between a Dutch Apple Pie (aka Apple Crumble Pie) and a traditional Apple Pie is the streusel topping that bakes up into crunchy, sweet deliciousness and is, in my opinion, easier to make than a pastry top.
