Apple Crunch Pie

1 9 oz. package Marzetti® Apple Crisp Mix, divided

1 tsp. vanilla extract

4 large (about 11⁄2 lbs.) Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored & diced

1⁄2 cup Marzetti® Old Fashioned Caramel Dip, plus extra for serving

1 9” prepared pie crust

1 cup sour cream

1 tsp. ground cinnamon

1 large egg

3 tbsp. butter, softened


Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. In a mixing bowl, combine 1/4 cup Marzetti Apple Crisp Mix, Marzetti Old Fashioned Caramel Dip, sour cream, egg and vanilla; add apple pieces and stir to coat apples. Spoon filling into prepared pie shell. Bake pie for 35 to 40 minutes or until apples are tender and crust is golden brown. Prepare topping while pie is baking; combine remaining Marzetti Apple Crisp Mix, cinnamon and butter in a bowl and mix until it looks like course meal. Remove pie from oven and sprinkle topping over apples. Return pie to oven and bake 10 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown. Cool. Serve with warm Marzetti Old Fashioned Caramel Dip. (To warm Marzetti Old Fashioned Caramel Dip, spoon desired amount into a microwave safe container and microwave on medium heat for 10 to 20 seconds or until warm.)
