Easy Vegan Apple Pie

Apple pie is a traditional yet simple and delicious dessert for any number of holidays, whether it's Fourth of July, Thanksgiving, or Christmas, as well as a classic option for a casual dinner party. Because it's usually made with butter, traditional apple pie isn't vegan. However, by using vegan margarine or a vegan butter substitute, the dessert can be easily modified for vegans to enjoy, too.

Ingredients

• 4 to 5 Granny Smith apples (cored and thinly sliced)
• 1 vegan pie crust (premade)
• 1/3 cup vegan margarine (or a vegan butter substitute, softened, divided)
• 1/3 cup brown sugar (packed)
• 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon grated nutmeg
