MILE-HIGH APPLE PIE

Categories     dessert

Time 2h15m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

4 Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored and quartered
4 McIntosh apples, peeled, cored and quartered
1 tablespoon lemon juice
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup packed light brown sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
5 tablespoons all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
Perfect Pie Dough, recipe follows
One 7-ounce tube marzipan almond paste
1 egg, beaten, for egg wash
3 cups flour, plus more for dusting
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups (3 sticks) unsalted butter, cut into small pieces, chilled or frozen

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Cut the quartered apples into 1/2-inch slices and mix with the lemon juice in a large bowl. Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the apples, toss to coat and cook, 5 to 7 minutes. Sprinkle the sugars, cinnamon, salt, nutmeg and allspice over the apples and toss to coat evenly. Sprinkle the flour over the mixture to thicken, and then let cool completely. Roll out one of the Perfect Pie Dough discs on a floured surface. Fit into a 9-inch pie plate, giving yourself a 1/2-inch overhang. Roll the marzipan between 2 pieces of parchment paper into a 9-by-1/8-inch-thick circle. Place the marzipan over the bottom crust. Dock the bottom crust, using a fork, and fill the pie with the apple mixture. Roll out the second pie dough disc to fit on top of the apples. Place on top of the pie and trim the edges to about 1/2-inch overhang. Pinch the top crust to the bottom, fluting the edge or pressing to seal with the tines of a fork. Vent the pie by cutting 4 slits in the top, and brush with the egg wash. Transfer the pie to a sheet tray and bake until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly, 45 to 50 minutes. Let cool 20 minutes before serving.
  • Mix the flour and salt together in a food processer. Add the butter into the flour mixture and pulse until you have large pea-size chunks scattered throughout. Add 8 to 10 tablespoons ice water slowly, while stirring with a fork, just until combined. Transfer to a floured surface, divide in half, shape into 2 discs and wrap separately in plastic wrap. Refrigerate at least 30 minutes.

MILE-HIGH APPLE PIE



Mile-High Apple Pie image

Resist the urge to cut into this pie before it has cooled completely so the juices have time to thicken. This pie tastes even better the day after it has been baked.

Yield Makes one 9-inch pie

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 cup all-purpose flour, plus more for rolling
Deep-Dish Pate Brisee
5 1/2 pounds firm tart apples (about 14), such as Empire or Granny Smith
Juice of 2 lemons
1 cup sugar, plus more for sprinkling
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
3 tablespoons chilled unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
1 large egg yolk

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees. On a lightly floured work surface, roll out the smaller piece of pate brisee into a 15-inch round about 1/8-inch thick, dusting surface with flour to prevent sticking, as needed. Brush off excess flour. Roll dough around rolling pin, and place over a deep-dish 9-inch pie plate. Line plate with dough, pressing it into the corners. Trim dough to within 1 inch of the pie plate. Cover with plastic wrap; refrigerate.
  • Roll out remaining piece of dough into an 18-inch round. Transfer round to a baking sheet; cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate.
  • Peel and core apples, and cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Place slices in a large bowl; sprinkle with lemon juice to prevent discoloration. In a small bowl, combine flour, sugar, and cinnamon; toss with apple slices.
  • Remove remaining dough from refrigerator; place apple mixture into prepared pie plate, mounding it in a tall pile. Dot filling with butter. Place dough round over the apples. Tuck edge of top dough between edge of bottom dough and rim of pan. Using your fingers, gently press both layers of dough along the edge to seal, and crimp as desired.
  • Using a paring knife, cut several vents in top of dough to allow steam to escape. In a small bowl, whisk together egg yolk with 2 tablespoons water to make a glaze. Brush surface with egg glaze; sprinkle with sugar. Place on a baking sheet, this will catch any juices that may overflow during baking. Bake until crust is golden, about 15 minutes.
  • Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees and continue baking until crust is golden brown and juices are bubbling, 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes. Remove from oven, and let cool completely before serving.

MILE-HIGH APPLE PIE



Mile-High Apple Pie image

If you've ever prayed for an apple pie recipe with a substantial, luscious, juicy apple filling, but without a flood of juice when you cut it, then this tall, majestic creation is for you. Potato starch keeps the filling inside the pie where it belongs, but without the chalky, pasty texture often caused by using flour. The juices here are thick and clear, without that thick, sticky 'supermarket' feel. They coat the apple slices lightly and beautifully with no soupiness.

Time 4h25m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 10

8 large Golden Delicious apples - peeled, cored and cut into 1/8 inch slices
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
3 tablespoons potato starch
¾ cup white sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
¼ cup cold unsalted butter, cut into 1/4-inch pieces
1 recipe pastry for a 10-inch double crust pie
2 teaspoons milk
1 tablespoon white sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Position an oven rack in the lower part of the oven and place a baking stone on it.
  • Place the apples into a large mixing bowl, and toss with the lemon juice.
  • Stir the potato starch, 3/4 cup sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg together in a bowl.
  • Roll out half of the pie crust pastry on a lightly floured surface and fit it into a 10 inch pie plate. Pile half the apples into the crust, and dot with half the butter pieces. Sprinkle half of the potato starch-cinnamon sugar mixture over the apples. Pile the remaining apples into the pie plate. Sprinkle with the remaining butter pieces and sugar mixture. Roll out the remaining pie crust pastry, and place carefully over the apples. Pinch and crimp the edges to seal the crusts. Use a fork to poke holes in the top crust in a few places. Brush the top crust with milk, and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon sugar.
  • Place the pie in the preheated oven on the baking stone. Immediately lower the heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Bake until the crust is golden brown, about 60 minutes. Check half way through the baking time, and cover the edges with aluminum foil for the last 30 minutes if necessary to prevent over-browning. Cool 3 hours on a wire rack before serving.

Tips for Making Mile-High Apple Pies with Splenda

- Utilize a combination of Splenda and granulated sugar to achieve a delectable and calorie-conscious pie filling. This substitution not only reduces sugar content but also imparts a delightful sweetness without overpowering the natural apple flavor. - Infuse your pie filling with an aromatic blend of spices such as cinnamon, nutmeg, and allspice to enhance its flavor profile and create a classic apple pie taste. - Incorporate a touch of lemon juice or zest into your filling to balance the sweetness and add a refreshing citrus note that complements the apples. - Opt for a combination of apple varieties, such as Granny Smith and Honeycrisp, to create a filling with a diverse range of textures and flavors. This blend ensures a well-rounded and enjoyable eating experience. - To achieve a mile-high effect, ensure that your pie crust is chilled before baking. This prevents the crust from shrinking excessively and allows it to rise beautifully during baking, resulting in an impressive and visually appealing pie. - For a crispy and golden-brown crust, brush the top with melted butter or milk before baking. This creates a caramelized crust that enhances the pie's overall texture and appearance. - If you prefer a sweeter crust, sprinkle a combination of Splenda and granulated sugar on top before baking. This will create a delightful and crunchy topping that adds an extra layer of sweetness to your pie. ###
