This family-favorite vegan apple pie is filled with tart apple slices, brown sugar, vanilla, and more delicious flavors. The crust is perfectly flaky and holds the filling well.
Preheat oven to 375℉. Set pie dough out to thaw if using storebought.
Peel, core, and thinly slice the apples. Place in a large bowl as you go and toss with lemon juice.
In a small bowl, mix together the sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and flour.
Toss the sugar mixture in with the apples, then toss in the melted vegan butter and vanilla extract until the apples are fully coated.
Line a 9-inch pie pan with half of the dough. Trim the edges.
Add the apple slices into the pie pan evenly.
Cover the pie with the other half of the dough. Trim and crimp the edges. Vent the pie crust by gently creating 4 or 5 2-inch slices with a knife from the middle toward the edges.
Cover the edges of the crust with foil or use a crust shield. Bake the pie for 30 minutes.
Remove the foil and brush the crust with oil. Then bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, until the crust is nicely browned.
Let cool for about 30 minutes before serving.
Notes
*Instead of brushing the crust with oil, you can also use some vegan milk (like oat or almond milk.)
