Dutch Apple Pie

My fiancee made this for me tonight, and before even taking a bite, I had to snap this picture.  It smells and looks absolutely amazing, and Nick is cutting me a huge slice as we speak.  It got great reviews on RecipeZaar, so I know it'll be a hit.


Ingredients
• 1 your favorite homemade pie crust or ready-made pie crust
• 5 1/2 cups peeled cored sliced cooking apples
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice

• 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg

Topping
