Creating Toffee Apple Pie is a delightful process. Follow these simple steps to make your own:

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Prepare the Apples: Peel, core, and slice the apples into thin wedges. Place them in a large mixing bowl.
3. Add Flavorings: Sprinkle the brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, lemon juice, and vanilla extract over the apples. Toss to coat evenly.
4. Prepare the Pie Crust: Roll out your pie crust and fit it into a 9-inch pie dish. Trim any excess crust hanging over the edges.
5. Fill the Pie: Pour the apple mixture into the prepared pie crust. If using, sprinkle the toffee bits evenly over the apples.
6. Make the Topping: In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, pour it over the apple filling.
7. Cover with Crust: Roll out a second pie crust and place it over the filling. Cut slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.
8. Crimp Edges: Crimp the edges of the crust together to seal the pie. You can also brush the top with an egg wash for a golden finish.
9. Bake: Place the pie in the preheated oven and bake for 45-50 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
10. Cool: Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool for 15-20 minutes before slicing.

With these steps, you’ll have a scrumptious Toffee Apple Pie ready to enjoy!
