Preheat the oven to 375°F.

Peel, core, and chop the Granny Smith apples into thin slices to prevent oxidation.

In a bowl, combine sugar and flour, then cut in cold butter into small pieces to create a crumb topping.

Squeeze a teaspoon of lemon juice over the chopped apples to prevent browning.

Mix the apples with sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and flour until well combined.

Use a 9-inch frozen pie crust, optionally lined with foil to prevent burning during baking.

Spread the apple mixture evenly in the pie crust.

Top the apples with the crumb topping, ensuring clumps are the desired size.

Bake the pie for at least one hour until it is bubbling and golden brown, checking for bubbling to ensure the filling thickens.

Let the pie set for several hours before cutting to prevent the filling from running.
