Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar. Cut in the cold unsalted butter with a pastry cutter or fork until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Slowly add the ice water to the mixture, one tablespoon at a time, and mix until the dough comes together. Do not overwork the dough.
Form the dough into a disk, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
Peel, core, and slice the apples into thin pieces. Place them in a large mixing bowl.
Add the brown sugar, ground cinnamon, nutmeg, cornstarch, and lemon juice to the apples. Mix well to coat the apples evenly.
Roll out the chilled dough on a lightly floured surface into a 12-inch circle. Transfer the dough into a 9-inch pie dish and trim excess edges.
Pour the apple filling into the prepared pie crust, spreading it evenly.
In a separate bowl, combine the rolled oats, chopped pecans, brown sugar (for topping), and melted butter. Mix until crumbly.
Sprinkle the oat and pecan mixture evenly over the apple filling.
Place the pie dish on a baking sheet to catch any juices that may overflow during baking.
Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 55-60 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the apple filling is bubbling.
Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool for at least an hour before serving.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Optionally, pair it with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for an extra treat!
