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.

THANKSGIVING PIECAKEN



Thanksgiving PieCaken image

Can't decide between cake or pie for dessert? Don't. This epic confection hits all the right flavor notes, textures and will undoubtedly be the most impressive dessert you ever make.

Provided by Zac Young

Categories     Pie

Time 5h30m

Yield 1 8 inch cake, 8-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 23

1 (9 inch) pumpkin pie (store bought or your favorite recipe, mine is from the back of the Libby's can!)
1 (9 inch) pecan pie (store bought or your favorite recipe)
1 large Granny Smith apples
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 tablespoons dark brown sugar
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1/2 cup buttermilk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
4 large egg whites (totally clean, no yolks!)
1 cup granulated sugar
1 lb unsalted butter
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350.
  • Spray a 8" cake pan with non stick spray and line with a round of parchment paper.
  • Make the Apple Topping:.
  • Peel, core and cut it into quarters. Slice each quarter into very thin (1/16") slices. Melt the butter in the microwave. In a bowl, toss the butter, brown sugar and apples together. Spread the apple mixture into a thin layer in the bottom of the prepared cake pan and bake in the oven for 10 minutes; The sugar and butter should be melted and the apples should start to soften. There may be a little liquid that has seeped out of the apples, that is fine.
  • Let the pan cool while you make the cake.
  • Make the Spice Cake:.
  • Put the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and spices in a medium bowl and whisk until blended together. In a large mixing bowl whisk the oil and sugar together, it's actually easier to do this by hand than with an electric mixer. If you really like the mixer, use it. Add both of the eggs and whisk until smooth, you don't have to spend a lot of time on this, just whisk it together. Add the buttermilk and vanilla and whisk until incorporated. Add the dry ingredients in two installments, whisking until blended.
  • Carefully pour the batter over the apple layer. If you dump it on top, you run the risk of displacing the apples and ruining the pretty apple design! (it will still taste good).
  • Return the pan to the oven and bake at 350 degrees for 20 to 30 minutes until the center of the cake is fully cooked. Once the cake has cooled for 20 minutes, flip it out of the cake pan and onto a cooling rack. Remove the parchment. Let cool fully while you make the frosting.
  • Make the Cinnamon Buttercream Frosting:.
  • Find a pot that will fit the bottom of the bowl of a KitchenAid, fill it with three inches of water and bring to a simmer. Place the egg whites and the sugar in the mixer bowl and place over the simmering pot of water. Stir the mixture until the sugar has dissolved and the mixture is warm, about 4 minutes.
  • Place the bowl on the mixer fitted with the whisk attachment and beat on medium high until cool (about 8 to 10 minutes). Cut the butter into 1 inch cubes and gradually add to the mixer. Mix until the butter has incorporated and the frosting is light and fluffy (about 5 minutes). Add the salt, vanilla and cinnamon and whisk until combined.
  • Assemble the PieCaken:.
  • It is easier to assemble the PieCaken if the pies are chilled.
  • With a small knife, cut the outer crust off the pies, leaving only the filling and the bottom crust. With a serrated knife, cut off what was the top of the cake, which is now on the bottom. Do this by cutting straight through the cake horizontally about a half inch up the side of the cake. Reserve the scraps for snacking.
  • On an 8 inch cake board or serving plate, place the pecan pie. Spread a ½ inch layer of frosting over the top of the pie. Place the pumpkin pie on top and spread a ½ inch of frosting on top. Place the cake, apple side up, on top of the frosting. With a serrated knife, trim the sides of the cake to be flush with the pies.
  • Eat the scraps.
  • Using an offset spatula, spread a ½ inch layer of frosting around the cake, covering the sides. Using a piping bag with whatever tip you want, pipe a pretty border around the top of the cake. I like to leave the top of the cake unfrosted so you can see the apples.
  • Refrigerate the PieCaken for at least an hour or tightly wrapped for up to 5 days.
  • Let sit at room temperature for an hour before serving so the buttercream softens.
  • Cut the PieCaken into 8 to 12 slices using a sharp knife dipped in hot water.
  • Serve with whipped cream or ice cream!

Tips:

  • Choose the right apples: Use a variety of apples that will hold their shape when baked, such as Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, or Braeburn.
  • Peel and core the apples: Use a sharp knife to peel and core the apples. Be sure to remove all of the seeds.
  • Slice the apples thinly: Slice the apples into thin slices. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Use fresh pumpkin puree: Fresh pumpkin puree has a much better flavor than canned pumpkin puree. If you can, use homemade pumpkin puree.
  • Toast the pecans: Toasting the pecans will bring out their flavor. You can toast them in a skillet over medium heat or in the oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 10-12 minutes.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the pie tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the pie at a high temperature: This will help the crust to brown and the filling to set.
  • Let the pie cool completely before serving: This will allow the filling to set and the flavors to meld.

Conclusion:
