One bite, and Grandma was right. If you want to learn how to make homemade apple pie filling, this is really the only recipe you need. -Maggie Greene, Granite Falls, Washington

Categories     dessert

Time 1h20m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

1 cup fresh cranberries
1/3 cup raisins

TOM'S MOM'S APPLE PIE

Provided by Valerie Bertinelli

Categories     dessert

Time 4h55m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

3 cups sifted all-purpose flour, plus extra for bench flour
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 stick (8 tablespoons) cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
1/2 cup cold lard (about 4 ounces), broken up into small pieces
2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
1/3 cup cold water
1/4 cup light brown sugar
1/4 cup granulated sugar
3 tablespoons cornstarch
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
5 Granny Smith apples (about 1 3/4 pounds), peeled and cut into 1/4-inch slices
1 tablespoon fresh orange juice
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into 1/4-inch pieces
8 ounces cold mascarpone
3/4 cup cold heavy cream
1/4 cup confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • For the pie crust: Place the flour, granulated sugar and salt in a food processor. Pulse once or twice to evenly incorporate. Add the butter and lard and pulse until the fat is broken down into pea-size pieces, 5 to 6 pulses. Add the cider vinegar and 1 tablespoon of the cold water and pulse to combine. Continue adding a tablespoon of water at a time and pulsing after each addition until the dough just comes together (you may not need the full 1/3 cup water). Remove the dough from the food processor and form a third of the dough (about 9 ounces) into a disk. Form the remaining two-thirds of the dough (about 1 pound) into another disk. Wrap the disks in plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 2 hours or up to overnight.
  • Position an oven rack in the lower third of the oven and preheat to 425 degrees F.
  • Remove the dough disks from the refrigerator and let sit at room temperature for 10 to 20 minutes to take the chill off.
  • For the filling: Combine the brown sugar, granulated sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, salt, ginger and nutmeg in a small bowl. Set aside.
  • Put the apple slices in a large bowl and stir in the sugar mixture and orange juice. Mix to combine.
  • Dust a clean work surface with flour and roll out the larger disk of dough into a 13-inch round. Transfer to a 10-inch pie dish. Pour the apple filling into the shell and then evenly distribute the butter pieces over the apples. Roll out the second disk of dough into an approximately 11-by-10-inch rectangle. Cut the dough into six strips, about 11 inches long by 1 1/4 inches thick.
  • Form a lattice top by laying 3 parallel dough strips vertically across the pie. Fold the middle strip of dough in half back over itself and lay one piece of dough horizontally across the middle of the pie, perpendicular to the other dough strips. Fold the original strip of dough back down. Next, lift the other two strips of dough and fold them back over themselves. Lay another strip of dough perpendicular to the folded-over dough pieces. Fold those pieces back down and repeat on the other side with the remaining piece of dough. Trim the dough around the edges of the pie dish so there is no more than a 1/2-inch overhang.
  • Fold the bottom crust up and over the edges of the lattice top and crimp the edges together between your forefingers and thumbs. Place the pie on a baking sheet and transfer to the oven. Bake for 20 minutes. Remove the pie from the oven and cover the edges with foil or a pie crust shield. Return to the oven and continue to bake until the filling begins to bubble, another 35 to 40 minutes. Let cool at least 1 hour.
  • For the mascarpone whipped cream: Combine the mascarpone, cream and confectioners' sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment. Beat on high speed until the mixture forms soft peaks and is thick. Serve immediately or store in the refrigerator until ready to serve. (This can be made the day before.)
  • Cut the pie into slices and top with the mascarpone whipped cream.

Categories     Fruit Desserts

Time 1h35m

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 - 9 inch pie crusts, unbaked..i use homemade
8 - 10 granny smith apples, peeled and sliced 1/4 inch thick ( for deep dish pie) 8 apples should do for a regular 9 in pie plate
1 1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/3 c flour
3/4 c sugar
1/4 c brown sugar
4 Tbsp lemon juice, or to taste
2 Tbsp butter
milk for top crust ( optional)
sugar for top crust ( optional)

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 400 degree.
  • 2. Prepare crust if making homemade. If using store bought, place bottom crust into pie plate.
  • 3. Prepare apples. Peel and slice apples about 1/4 inch thick, place in a medium bowl; add flour, sugars, cinnamon, lemon juice, mix and set aside. (taste after they start making juice). I leave these set for about 15 - 20 minutes, then stir again and taste. If the juice is too sour, add some more sugar. It should be somewhat tart.
  • 4. Place the bottom crust in pie plate, having some overhang, spoon the apples and juice in. I heap mine; they will cook down, so make sure you have your dish heaped, but not running over. Top with pieces of butter.
  • 5. Now, carefully top the apples with the other crust. Fold top crust under the edge of the bottom crust. Use a fork or fingers to pinch the crusts together.
  • 6. I brush the top with milk, sprinkle with sugar, and cut several slits to vent.
  • 7. Bake at 400 degree F. for 15 minutes; I cover the crust with foil to keep from getting too brown. Make sure you place foil under the pie as it the juices may leak out. Reduce heat to 350 degree F. and bake for another 50 to 55 minutes. I take a thin knife and slide it through one of the venting holes to make sure apples are tender. I made one deep dish and one regular 9 in. pie. You may need to bake a deep dish a few minutes longer, obviously there are more apples to cook.
  • 8. Let cool on cooling rack. Cover and refrigerate pie till ready to serve. Cover left over pie and refrigerate.

Tips:

  • Use a blend of apples. This will give your pie a more complex flavor and texture. Some good combinations include Granny Smith and Honeycrisp, or Braeburn and Pink Lady.
  • Peel and core your apples thinly. This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from becoming mushy.
  • Don't overfill your pie crust. Leave about 1 inch of space around the edges so the filling has room to bubble and expand.
  • Brush the edges of the pie crust with milk or an egg wash before baking. This will help them brown and create a nice seal.
  • Bake your pie in a preheated oven. This will help the crust cook evenly and prevent the filling from becoming runny.
  • Let your pie cool for at least an hour before serving. This will give the filling time to set and the crust time to crisp up.

Conclusion:

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