Categories     Dessert

Time 4h25m

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 cup (142g) unbleached all-purpose flour* ((scoop and level))
2 tsp granulated sugar
1/4 tsp (heaping) salt
8 Tbsp (113g) unsalted butter, (well chilled, diced into small cubes)
3 - 5 Tbsp ice water
1/2 cup packed (100g) light brown sugar
3/4 cup (106g) unbleached all-purpose flour ((scoop and level))
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
1/8 tsp salt
6 Tbsp (85g) unsalted butter, (melted)
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 1/4 lbs (4 small) golden delicious apples, (peeled cored and sliced 1/4-inch thick*)
1 1/4 lbs (4 small) granny smith apples, (peeled, cored and thinly sliced 1/6-inch thick)
2 Tbsp unsalted butter, (melted)
1 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar
3 Tbsp (26g) unbleached all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • To make crust: In a medium mixing bowl whisk together 1 cup flour, 2 tsp sugar and heaping 1/4 tsp salt. Add butter and cut into mixture using a pastry blender until there are just small pea size clumps of butter throughout.
  • Add ice water 1 Tbsp at a time and toss until mixture is just moistened and comes together in bigger clumps. Gather mixture into a ball and shape and press into a smooth, 6-inch round on a lightly floured surface. Cover and refrigerate until dough is more firm, about 60 minutes.
  • Remove dough, roll out into a 12 1/2-inch round on a lightly floured surface. Fold in half then into a quarter or wrap around a rolling pin and transfer to a 9 1/2 to 9-inch deep dish pie plate and unwrap. Fit to plate, flute edges if desired.
  • Refrigerate until well chilled about 1 hour (or freeze for 15 minutes). Meanwhile preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  • Line crust with a sheet of foil or parchment paper (cover to edges), add dry beans, rice, sugar or pie weights to fill just level to the top. Bake pie in preheated oven 15 minutes.
  • Hold all four corners of foil and remove beans. Prick bottom of pie crust about 10 times. Return to oven and continue to bake until it's starting to dry, about 8 - 12 minutes longer. Remove crust and let cool on a wire rack while you prepare the topping and filling.
  • Move oven rack down one level from center. Reduce oven temperature to 350.
  • For the crumb topping: Add brown sugar to a medium mixing bowl and break up with fingertips. Add 3/4 cup flour, nutmeg and salt and whisk.
  • Stir vanilla into 6 Tbsp melted butter. Pour into flour mixture and toss until evenly moistened. Transfer to refrigerator while you prepare filling.
  • For the apple pie filling: In a large mixing bowl toss sliced apples with remaining 2 Tbsp melted butter and lemon juice. Add sugar, 3 Tbsp flour, and cinnamon. Toss mixture to evenly coat.
  • To assemble pie: Layer a handful or two of apple mixture into the pie dish at a time, spreading and pressing into an even layer and turning slices flat (this will help ensure you'll fit all of them in).
  • Remove crumble from refrigerator, break into small clumps and sprinkle evenly over the top of the pie.
  • Place the pie on a rimmed baking sheet and bake in preheated oven until apples are almost fully tender when poked with a toothpick (they should have a just little give as they will continue carryover cooking as the pie cools), about 45 - 55 minutes. Check pie a few times throughout baking to ensure the topping or crust isn't overly browning, if needed tent with foil. If it's not browning enough you can move oven rack up one level.
  • Remove pie from oven and let cool on a wire rack (it will take about 2 hours of cooling). Serve just warm with vanilla ice cream if desired.

The first apple pie I ever made; easy and simple directions. And real apples, no canned apple pie filling! I made this for dessert when company was over and I figured if I screwed up, I could always pass it off as apple cobbler with ice cream served over it, but it came out great, looked and tasted like a real apple pie!

DUTCH APPLE PIE



Dutch Apple Pie image

The difference between classic apple pie and a Dutch apple pie recipe is all in the delicious crumb topping. Dutch apple pie topping is made with butter, Gold Medal™ flour, brown sugar and granulated sugar, and you'll know when it's ready to come out of the oven when the crumb toppings are a deep golden brown. Instead of a second pie crust, enjoy a generous blanket of sweet streusel crumbs-sprinkled over a tender spiced apple filling.

Time 2h45m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon shortening
2 to 3 tablespoons cold water
8 cups sliced cored peeled apples
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
2/3 cup packed brown sugar
1 tablespoon granulated sugar

Steps:

  • In medium bowl, mix 1 cup flour and the salt. Cut in shortening, using pastry blender (or pulling 2 table knives through ingredients in opposite directions), until particles are size of small peas. Sprinkle with cold water, 1 tablespoon at a time, tossing with fork until all flour is moistened and pastry almost leaves side of bowl (1 to 2 teaspoons more water can be added if necessary). Gather pastry into a ball. Shape into flattened round on lightly floured surface. Wrap flattened round of pastry in plastic wrap, and refrigerate about 45 minutes or until dough is firm and cold, yet pliable. This allows the shortening to become slightly firm, which helps make the baked pastry more flaky. If refrigerated longer, let pastry soften slightly before rolling.
  • Heat oven to 400°F. On surface sprinkled with flour, using floured rolling pin, roll pastry dough into circle 2 inches larger than 9-inch pie plate. Fold pastry into fourths; place in pie plate. Unfold and ease into plate, pressing firmly against bottom and side and being careful not to stretch pastry, which will cause it to shrink when baked. Trim overhanging edge of pastry 1 inch from rim of pie plate. Fold and roll pastry under, even with plate; flute as desired.
  • In large bowl, toss Filling ingredients. Pour into pie plate, mounding apples toward center.
  • In medium bowl, use pastry blender or fingers to mix butter, 1 cup flour and the brown sugar until a crumb forms. Sprinkle evenly over top of pie. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon granulated sugar on top.
  • Bake 45 to 55 minutes or until pie crust and crumb topping are deep golden brown and filling begins to bubble. Transfer to cooling rack to cool.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of apples: The blend of tart and sweet apples gives this pie its complex flavor. Try using a mix of Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Braeburn apples.
  • Make sure your apples are thinly sliced: This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from becoming mushy.
  • Don't overcook the apples: You want them to be tender but still retain some of their texture.
  • Use a combination of sugars: The granulated sugar provides sweetness, while the brown sugar adds a touch of caramel flavor.
  • Don't be afraid to add spices: Cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger are all classic apple pie spices that add warmth and depth of flavor.
  • Use a good quality pie crust: This is the foundation of your pie, so make sure it's flaky and flavorful. You can use a store-bought pie crust if you're short on time, but homemade is always better.
  • Brush the crust with egg wash before baking: This will help it brown beautifully in the oven.
  • Let the pie cool completely before slicing: This will help the filling set and prevent it from running out.

Conclusion:

The Flying Dutchman Apple Pie is a classic dessert that's perfect for any occasion. With its flaky crust, tender apples, and sweet-tart filling, it's sure to be a hit with everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a delicious and easy-to-make apple pie recipe, give this one a try.
