- 1 9 inch frozen pie crust

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C) for optimal baking.
- Let's whip up a delicious apple pie together! To start, gather some apple slices and place them in a spacious bowl. In a separate bowl, combine white sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, and allspice; sprinkle this delightful mixture over the apples. Give everything a good toss until those succulent apples are evenly coated.
- To make the process easier, start by removing the pie shell from the freezer. Then, carefully pour the apple mixture into the pie shell, ensuring an even distribution. Don't forget to dot the mixture with butter for added flavor. Next, take a sheet of aluminum foil and gently place it on top
- Place the pie in the preheated oven and bake for 10 minutes.
- In the meantime, let's prepare the streusel topping: Take a medium bowl and combine flour, oats, brown sugar, lemon zest, and cinnamon. Mix them until well incorporated. Now it's time to make the texture crumbly by cutting in some butter. Once your pie is done baking, generously sprinkle the scrumptious streusel on
- To achieve optimal results, kindly reduce the oven temperature to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Please place the pie back in the oven and allow it to bake for an additional 30 to 35 minutes until the streusel is beautifully browned and the apples have reached a tender consistency. For added precaution against excessive browning, you may loosely cover the pie
