Apple Pie
A classic apple pie with a flaky crust and spiced apple filling.
Ingredients
For the Filling
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2.5 pounds apples peeled, cored, and cut into wedges (about 5 large Honeycrisps)
- 0.25 teaspoon ground allspice
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon kosher salt
- 0.75 cup sugar plus 1 tablespoon
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
For the Crust
- 1 recipe double pie dough or pre-made crust
- 1 egg lightly beaten
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the apples, allspice, cinnamon, salt, sugar, flour, cornstarch, and apple cider vinegar. Stir to combine.
- Cook the apple mixture, stirring occasionally, until the apples soften and the liquid thickens, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
- Roll out one half of the pie dough and fit it into a 9-inch pie dish. Pour the apple filling into the crust.
- Roll out the second half of the pie dough and place it over the filling. Trim and crimp the edges to seal. Cut a few slits in the top crust to vent.
- Brush the top crust with the beaten egg. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
- Let the pie cool on a wire rack for at least 1 hour before serving.
Notes
Serve warm with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for extra indulgence.
