Apple Pie!

This recipe is adapted from the well-known, much-loved Grandma Ople apple pie recipe. I was never a big fan of apple pie until I made it myself. I found that Granny Smith apples are the real game-changer: the tart flavor contrasts with the sweetness and the warm spices. To ensure I don't lose this recipe, it's getting landlocked here on my recipe page for good measure :)
Notes
1
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
2
Roll out one pie crust and fit it into a 9-inch pie plate, then add the apples, forming a slight mound. (Reserve the other crust for topping.)
3
Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add flour and stir to form a paste; cook until fragrant, about 1 to 2 minutes. Add both sugars, water, cinnamon, and nutmeg; bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from the heat.
4
Roll out the remaining pie crust and cut into strips. Arrange strips in a lattice pattern over the apples.
5
Gently pour the sugar and butter liquid over the lattice crust, ensuring even coverage. Brush some onto lattice, but make sure it doesn't run off the sides.
6
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 350°F (175°C) and continue baking until apples are soft and the crust is golden brown, approximately 40-45 minutes.
