How to Make Easy German Apple Pie
1. Preheat the Oven
Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a standard pie dish or 9-inch baking dish.
2. Layer the Apples
Spread the thinly sliced apples evenly in the bottom of your dish. Arrange them nicely if you want a prettier finish once baked!
3. Add Dry Ingredients
Sprinkle the flour, sugar, baking powder, and cinnamon (if using) evenly over the apples. No mixing needed—just shake it lightly to distribute.
4. Pour Wet Ingredients
In a measuring cup or small bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, melted butter, and vanilla. Pour this mixture slowly and evenly over the dry ingredients and apples. It will sink through and create a soft, custardy base as it bakes.
5. Bake
Place the dish in the oven and bake for 40–45 minutes, or until the top is golden and the apples are tender when pierced with a knife.
6. Cool & Serve
Let cool for 10–15 minutes. Dust with powdered sugar if you like, then slice and serve warm or at room temperature.
Serving Suggestions
- Enjoy it warm with whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream
- Pair with coffee or tea for a cozy afternoon treat
- It also makes a lovely brunch or breakfast item (no judgment!)
Tips & Variations
- Add nuts: Sprinkle chopped walnuts or almonds on top before baking.
- Try pears: This recipe works beautifully with firm, ripe pears too.
- Make it dairy-free: Use almond milk and dairy-free butter.
- Add a streusel topping: Mix a bit of butter, sugar, and flour for a crumbly finish.
