Yield 16

3 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup unsalted butter
¾ cup white sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
5 Granny Smith apples, peeled and diced
½ cup brown sugar
½ cup white sugar

Tips:

  • Use a variety of apples. This will give your pie a more complex flavor and texture. Some good choices include Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Braeburn.
  • Peel and core your apples thinly. This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from becoming mushy.
  • Don't overcook your apples. They should be tender but still hold their shape.
  • Use a good quality caramel sauce. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your pie. You can use store-bought caramel sauce or make your own.
  • Don't overfill your pie crust. This will prevent the filling from bubbling over and making a mess.
  • Bake your pie at a high temperature for the first 15 minutes. This will help the crust to brown and set.
  • Reduce the temperature to 350 degrees Fahrenheit for the remaining baking time. This will help the filling to cook through without overcooking the crust.
  • Let your pie cool completely before serving. This will allow the filling to set and the flavors to meld.
