APPLE AND PEAR STREUSEL PIE



Apple and Pear Streusel Pie image

You might think that a pastry chef would never recommend buying pie crusts but hey, its much better to make a pie with a pre-made crust than not to make a pie at all! For the best flavor, always look for the ones made with at least some butter, rather than all shortening. You can place the crust in a glass pie dish. That way you can check the bottom crust as it bakes and make sure it's getting nice and golden which to my mind is the most important step in pie-making. Nothing ruins a delicious pie like this classic combination of autumn fruits and warm spices faster than an undercooked, soggy bottom crust. You can mix the topping and keep it refrigerated for up to 7 days.

Time 2h

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup light brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
4 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into pieces
1 refrigerated or frozen 9-inch deep-dish pie crust (see above)
3 Granny Smith or other tart apples, peeled, cored, and sliced 1/4-inch thick
3 firm but ripe pears, peeled, cored, and sliced 1/4-inch thick
1/2 cup light brown sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 tablespoon cold butter, cut into small pieces

Steps:

  • Make the topping: In a medium bowl, mix the flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Add the butter and, using your fingertips, pinch the ingredients together into a sandy, crumbly mixture. Do not over mix; as soon as the mixture is sandy, cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
  • Heat the oven to 375 degrees F. If using a refrigerated crust, use it to line a glass pie dish. If using a frozen crust, let thaw at room temperature and gently remove the crust from the aluminum liner. Transfer to a glass pie dish.
  • In a medium bowl, toss the apples, pears, sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, and butter together. Place the filling in the pie crust. Sprinkle the streusel topping on top and place the pie on a sheet pan to catch any juices. Bake for 40 to 50 minutes, until the crust is golden brown and the juices are bubbling. Check the pie after 30 minutes; if the streusel topping is already brown, cover lightly with foil.
  • Let cool at least 30 minutes before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of apples. This will give your pie a more complex flavor. Some good options include Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Braeburn apples.
  • Peel and core the apples before slicing them. This will help to prevent the pie from becoming too mushy.
  • Add a little bit of lemon juice to the apples. This will help to keep them from browning.
  • Use a combination of granulated sugar and brown sugar in the filling. This will give the pie a nice balance of sweetness.
  • Add a pinch of salt to the filling. This will help to enhance the flavor of the apples.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cake tough.
  • Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Let the cake cool completely before serving. This will help the flavors to develop.
  • Serve the cake with a dollop of whipped cream or ice cream.

Conclusion:

This apple pie streusel cake is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The combination of the sweet and tart apples, the flaky crust, and the crunchy streusel topping is sure to please everyone. So next time you're looking for a special treat, give this apple pie streusel cake a try.
