Prepare pie crust: Begin by preparing your favorite pie crust in a 9-inch pie pan, ensuring it’s ready to cradle the delicious filling.

Fill the crust: Spoon the fruit mixture into the prepared pie crust, ensuring an even distribution for a perfect bite every time.

Prepare the topping: In a separate small bowl, combine the old-fashioned oats, brown sugar, all-purpose flour, margarine, and butter. Use a fork or pastry blender to mix until the ingredients form a crumbly texture.

Top the pie: Sprinkle the crumbly topping evenly over the fruit filling, adding a delightful layer of sweetness and texture.

Bake to perfection: Place the pie in the preheated oven and bake at 425°F (220°C) for 35-45 minutes, or until the apples are tender and the topping is beautifully golden brown.
