Time 2h20m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup chopped pecans
½ cup firmly packed brown sugar
⅓ cup margarine, melted
1 pastry for a 9 inch double crust pie
6 cups Granny Smith apples - peeled, cored and sliced
¼ cup white sugar
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
⅛ teaspoon ground nutmeg

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • In a 9 inch deep-dish pie pan, combine pecans, brown sugar and margarine; spread into a single layer. Roll out dough, and place bottom crust over pecan mixture.
  • In a large bowl, combine apples, sugar, flour, cinnamon and nutmeg. Pour into crust in pan. Top with second crust. Fold edges of crust over, and flute to seal edges. Make several small slits in the top to allow steam to escape.
  • Place pan on foil or cookie sheet during baking to guard against spillage. Bake in preheated oven for 40 to 50 minutes, or until crust is golden brown and apples are tender.
  • Cool pie in pan for 5 minutes. Place serving plate over pie, and flip to invert, being careful not to come in contact with molten sugar. If some of the nuts stick to the pan, remove them with a knife, and place on pie. Allow to cool for 1 hour.

Time 2h20m

Yield Makes one 9-inch pie

Number Of Ingredients 14

Pate Brisee for Pink-Applesauce Tart
Unbleached all-purpose flour, for dusting
3/4 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
3/4 cup pecans, chopped
1/3 cup packed light-brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
6 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into cubes
2 3/4 pounds Granny Smith apples (5 to 6), peeled, cored, and cut into 1/2-inch-thick wedges
3/4 cup pecans, chopped
1/4 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Roll out dough to a 12-inch round on a lightly floured work surface. Transfer to a 9-inch pie plate. Trim edges, leaving a 1/2-inch overhang. Fold edges of dough under itself until flush with edge of dish. Crimp edges with fingers, the tines of a fork, or a spoon. Refrigerate until firm, about 30 minutes. Meanwhile, make crumb topping.
  • Crumb Topping: Combine flour, pecans, brown sugar, and salt in a medium bowl. Massage butter into flour mixture with your fingers until mixture clumps together and no dry flour remains. Press into bottom of bowl and refrigerate until firm, about 20 minutes.
  • Filling: In a large bowl, toss apples and pecans with flour, sugar, cinnamon, and salt until evenly coated. Stir together lemon juice and vanilla, drizzle over apple mixture, and toss to evenly coat.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees with racks in middle and lower third positions. Place a parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet on lower rack. Pour apple mixture into crust. Break up topping into large pieces and sprinkle evenly over filling. Bake on center rack until bubbly and crust is golden brown, 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 hours. (If crust and crumb topping brown too quickly, tent with foil.) Let cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving.

Provided by Loriq

Categories     Desserts     Pies     Apple Pie Recipes

Time 3h55m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon salt
1 cup cold shortening
6 tablespoons ice water, or as needed
½ cup unsalted butter
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
½ cup white sugar
½ cup packed brown sugar
¼ cup water
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 pinch ground nutmeg
⅓ cup butter
½ cup firmly packed brown sugar
1 cup chopped pecans
8 Granny Smith apples - peeled, cored and thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Whisk 2 1/2 cups flour and salt together in a bowl. Cut in shortening with 2 knives or pastry blender until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, tossing with a fork, until flour mixture is moistened and dough comes together. Do not add more water than you need. Divide the dough in half and shape into 2 balls. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate, at least 30 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a 9-inch pie pan with wax paper.
  • Melt 1/2 cup unsalted butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir in 3 tablespoons flour to form a paste. Stir in 1/4 cup white sugar, 1/2 cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup water, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and nutmeg; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until filling mixture is thickened slightly, about 3 minutes.
  • Melt 1/3 cup butter in a separate saucepan over low heat. Add 1/2 cup brown sugar and whisk until smooth, about 2 minutes. Stir in pecans.
  • Spread pecan mixture evenly onto lined pie pan. Roll out one ball of dough; line pie pan over pecan mixture. Toss apples with filling mixture; pour into pie plate. Roll out second ball of dough and place over apple filling. Crimp edges of bottom and top crusts together. Cut several small slits into top crust to vent. Place pie on foil-lined baking sheet.
  • Bake pie in the preheated oven until crust is golden brown, about 1 hour.
  • Remove pie from oven and allow to cool slightly, 5 to 10 minutes. Place a serving plate gently over pie and carefully flip to invert, being careful not to come in contact with molten sugar. Peel off waxed paper; cool for 1 hour.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of apples. This will give your pie a more complex flavor. Some good choices include Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Braeburn.
  • Don't overcook the apples. You want them to be tender, but not mushy. Cook them until they are just starting to soften.
  • Use fresh dates. Medjool dates are a good choice, as they are large and soft. If you can't find fresh dates, you can use dried dates, but be sure to soak them in warm water for 10 minutes before using.
  • Toast the pecans. This will bring out their flavor. You can toast them in a skillet over medium heat for 5-7 minutes, or in a preheated oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 10-12 minutes.
  • Use a deep-dish pie plate. This will prevent the filling from boiling over.
  • Let the pie cool completely before serving. This will allow the filling to set and the crust to become flaky.

Conclusion:

Apple, date, and pecan pie is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its sweet and tart filling and flaky crust, this pie is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a special dessert, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
