Instructions:

Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius) to preheat it while you prepare the pie.
-
Prepare the Pie Crust: Place the oven rack in the bottom position of your oven. If you’re using a store-bought pie crust, you can skip this step. Otherwise, roll out your pie crust and fit it into a pie dish.
-
Mix the Filling: In a large mixing bowl, combine the peeled and thinly sliced granny smith apples with the sugar, brown sugar, cornstarch, butter, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Toss everything together until the apples are evenly coated with the sugar mixture.
-
Fill the Pie Shell: Spoon the prepared apple mixture into the pie shell, spreading it out evenly.
-
Prepare the Topping: In a separate bowl, prepare the topping by combining the flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Cut in the butter using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Then, stir in the chopped nuts and Heath candy bar pieces.
-
Top the Pie: Sprinkle the prepared topping mixture evenly over the top of the apple filling in the pie shell.
-
Bake: Place the pie in the preheated oven on the lowest oven rack. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and crispy, and the apples are tender.
-
Serve: Once baked, remove the pie from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving. This Toffee Apple Pie is delicious on its own or served warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra special treat!
-
Enjoy: Slice into generous portions and enjoy the delightful blend of flavors and textures in every bite of this irresistible Toffee Apple Pie.
