- ½ cup white sugar
- 1 Tablespoon lime juice

- ½ teaspoon cloves
- ½ teaspoon nutmeg

Streusel Topping
- ½ cup oats
- ⅓ cup flour
- ¼ cup brown sgar
- ¼ teaspoon salt

Caramel Topping
- 1 (14 oz.) can sweetened condensed milk
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 2 Tablespoons butter
- ½ teaspoon vanilla
Instructions
- Peheat oven to 375 degrees F.
- Roll dough into a 13 inch circle and transfer to a 10 inch pie pan, lightly sprayed with cooking spray, or cast iron skillet, lightly rubbed with oil.
For filling
- In a large mixing bowl, combine lime juice, lemon juice and orange juice over apples. Add brown and white sugar and mix together. Sprinkle cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg and salt over apples and mix again. Stir in butter. Coat mixture with flour and spoon into pie crust.
Streusel topping
- In a small mixing bowl, mix the flour, oats, salt and brown sugar together. Cut the butter in with a pastry whisk or a fork. Sprinkle streusel over apple and bake for about 45 minutes at 375 degrees F or until apples are tender.
- While it is cooking make caramel topping.
Caramel Topping
- Heat milk and brown sugar together in a medium sauce pan and bring to a boil over medium heat stirring constantly. Reduce heat and simmer for 8 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from stove and stir in butter and vanilla. Cool for five minutes and drizzle over pie when it comes out of the oven. Let sit for about 20 minutes before serving.
Enjoy!

Nikki this is just one show-stopper of a pie! The streusel layer alone makes me want to dive in and start crumble-picking, you know, devouring all those perfect little bites right off the top before anyone else even saw them or knew they were on this pie :) And then the caramel! Whoa!!
Gorgeous & pinned!

Did you bake the store bought pie crust before adding the filling?

no you don't have to bake it prior to the filling
