Whats the recipe for apple pie?
Here is a classic apple pie recipe:
Ingredients:
For the pie crust:
- 2 1/4 cups (280g) all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon (5g) granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon (2.5g) table salt
- 1 cup (226g) unsalted butter, cut into 1-inch pieces and chilled
- 1/2 cup (120 ml) ice water, plus more as needed
For the apple filling:
- 7-8 cups (about 8 large) apples, peeled, cored, and sliced (such as Granny Smith, Braeburn, or Honeycrisp)
- 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup (118 ml) packed light brown sugar
- 3 tablespoons (21g) all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon (2.5g) ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon (1g) ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon (1g) table salt
- 1 1/2 tablespoons (22 ml) fresh lemon juice
Instructions:
To make the pie crust:
1. whisk together the flour, sugar, and salt in a large bowl.
2. Use your fingers or a pastry cutter to work the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
3. Gradually add the ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the dough just comes together and forms a ball. Be careful not to overmix.
4. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and flatten it into a disk. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight.
To make the apple filling:
1. In a large bowl, combine the sliced apples, granulated sugar, brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Stir until the apples are evenly coated.
2. Add the lemon juice and stir to combine.
To assemble the pie:
1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
2. Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface until it is about 1/8-inch thick.
3. Transfer the dough to a 9-inch pie plate and trim the edges.
4. Pour the apple filling onto the dough and spread it out evenly.
5. Roll out the remaining dough and cut it into thin strips. Arrange the strips in a lattice pattern over the apples.
6. Trim the edges of the pie crust and crimp them together to seal.
7. Brush the top crust with milk or an egg wash (1 beaten egg mixed with 1 tablespoon water).
8. Sprinkle the top crust with a little bit of granulated sugar.
9. Bake the pie for 15 minutes at 425°F (220°C).
10. Reduce the oven temperature to 375°F (190°C) and continue baking for another 45-50 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the apples are tender.
11. Let the pie cool for at least 30 minutes before serving.
Enjoy your delicious apple pie!
