This is a fairly simple and classic recipe. To make even simpler use a pre-made store-bought pie crust instead of creating from scratch. Apple pie is great for any season, and is always a crowd pleaser.

1. Preheat oven to 425 F. Spray a 9-inch deep-dish pie plate with vegetable cooking spray.

2. In a large bowl, combine brown sugar, granulated sugar, flour, lemon zest, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Mix well.

3. Peel, core, and thinly slice apples. Add apples to sugar mixture; stir until coated. Stir in raisins. Spoon into prepared plate.

4. Place pie crust on top of filling. Trim edges, pressing against edge of pan. Using a sharp knife, cut steam vents in pie crust. To glaze, lightly brush pie crust with beaten egg. Sprinkle with sugar.

5. Bake until pie crust is golden brown, about 35 to 40 minutes. Place on a wire rack and cool for 30 minutes. Serve warm.
