Maple Oat Crumble Apple Pie

Pastry chef Marissa Hart takes your standard apple pie and gives it a cozy fall upgrade with the addition of maple (both the syrup and sugar) and a cinnamon-y oat crumble. She recommends using tart Granny Smith apples to offset the sweetness from the rest of the pie. Pair your slice with a big mug of coffee or tea to make it extra homey.
