This super easy apple slab pie just makes you look like a fabulous chef! So easy. And, it's simplicity is the exquisite beauty! Perfection!

Ingredients

  • Preheat oven to 375
  • 1 lemon, large, juice and zest
  • 3 very large apples, washed, and sliced into thin slices with skin on, about 5-6 cups
  • 2 Tbl .arrowroot
  • 1 refrigerated Classic Pizza Family Style Crust, Wewalka brand or similar brand, almost room temperature
  • 5 Tbl. butter, salted, room temperature and spreadable or somewhat melted
  • 1 cup + 2 Tbl. sugar, divided
  • 3 tsp. cinnamon, optional
  • 1 egg white

Instructions

  1. Wash the apples well. Slice in halves, then quarters and use a paring knife to slice into thin slices. Put in the bowl with lemon juice/zest, arrowroot and toss and blend. This will keep the apples from turning brown.
  2. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper. Roll out the rectangular pizza dough. Gently stretch with your hands to about a 12 x 16 size.
  3. Slather the softened butter on the dough. Blend together one-half of the sugar with the cinnamon. Sprinkle all over the butter on the dough.
  4. Take the apple slices and line three rows on the dough leaving about one inch border all around. Sprinkle one-half cup sugar on the apples.
  5. Fold over the sides and pinch and seal. Use the egg white and brush on the exposed dough and sprinkle the two tablespoons of sugar on the dough.
  6. Bake in a preheated 375 oven for about 35 to 38 minutes or until the dough is golden brown.
  7. Remove. Cool. And, slice!
