Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Pie & Tarts Recipes

Time 4h

Yield Makes one 9-inch pie

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for surface
1 1/2 ounces walnuts, toasted and chopped (1/2 cup)
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
1 teaspoon coarse salt
2 sticks cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
1/3 to 1/2 cup ice water
5 to 6 Granny Smith apples
3 firm-ripe Bosc pears
1/4 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup granulated sugar
1 whole vanilla bean, split and scraped
Juice of 1/2 lemon (about 5 teaspoons)
1/2 stick unsalted butter
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 large egg, lightly beaten
Fine sanding sugar

Steps:

  • Crust: Pulse flour, walnuts, granulated sugar, and salt in a food processor until walnuts are finely chopped. Add butter; pulse until mixture resembles coarse meal, 8 to 10 seconds. Drizzle pi cup ice water evenly over mixture. Pulse until mixture comes together when pressed in your hand (dough should not be wet or sticky). If dough is too dry, add more ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, and pulse.
  • Lay out 2 pieces of plastic wrap. Empty half the dough onto each piece. Bring edges of wrap together to gather dough. Press into disks. Roll out disks, still wrapped in plastic, to 1/2-inch-thick rounds (8 inches in diameter). Refrigerate at least 45 minutes and up to 2 days. Let stand at room temperature 5 to 10 minutes before rolling.
  • Roll out 1 disk of dough into a 12-inch round (a generous 1/8-inch thickness) on a lightly floured surface. Fit into a 9-inch pie plate, and trim edge, leaving a 1-inch overhang. Roll out remaining disk of dough to a generous 1/8-inch thickness. Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet, and refrigerate, along with dough in pie plate, until firm, about 1 hour.
  • Filling: Peel and core apples, and cut into eighths (you should have about 7 cups). Peel and core pears, and cut into eighths (you should have about 5 cups). Toss apple and pear slices with salt, granulated sugar, vanilla seeds, and lemon juice. Melt butter in a large saute pan over high heat. Add fruit mixture, and cook, stirring, 5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-high, and cook until fruit is softened, about 5 minutes more. Stir in flour, and cook 1 minute. Remove from heat; let filling cool completely.
  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees with rack in lower third of oven. Cut dough on baking sheet into 3-inch-wide strips. Pour filling into dough-lined pie plate, and brush edge of dough with some egg wash. Weave dough strips into a lattice over filling, and press overhang onto edge of crust. Trim edge, fold under, and crimp as desired. Brush top of pie with more egg wash, then sprinkle with sanding sugar. Freeze until firm, about 30 minutes.
  • Bake pie 15 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 375 degrees, and bake until crust is golden and filling is bubbling through lattice, about 1 hour. Let cool completely on a wire rack.

Time 2h30m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 sheet refrigerated pie dough (half of a 14-ounce box)
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1 1/2 pounds assorted pears (such as Bosc or Bartlett)
1 1/2 pounds assorted apples (such as Gala, Honeycrisp or Golden Delicious)
1/2 cup chopped assorted dried fruit (such as cranberries, apricots and cherries)
1/2 cup chopped assorted dried fruit (such as cranberries, apricots and cherries)
1/2 cup honey
1/4 cup granulated sugar
Finely grated zest and juice of 1 lemon
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup rolled oats
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
6 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces

Steps:

  • Prepare the crust: Roll out the dough into a 12-inch round on a lightly floured surface. Ease into a 9-inch pie plate. Fold the overhanging dough under itself and crimp the edge with a fork or your fingers. Refrigerate until firm, about 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, make the filling: Peel and thinly slice the pears and apples and transfer to a large microwave-safe bowl; add the dried fruit, honey, granulated sugar, flour, lemon zest and juice, vanilla, cinnamon and salt and toss to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and microwave until the apples and pears are tender and juicy, 5 to 7 minutes. Refrigerate until cold, 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Make the topping: Whisk the oats, flour, brown sugar, salt and cinnamon in a medium bowl. Using your fingers, work the butter into the oat mixture until small clumps form. Refrigerate until ready to use.
  • Place the pie crust on a baking sheet. Add the filling, slightly mounding it in the center. Press the crumble topping evenly over the filling. Bake until the topping is browned and the filling is bubbling, about 1 1/2 hours. (Tent with foil if the topping browns too quickly.) Transfer to a rack and let cool completely.

APPLE PEAR BUTTER WITH PIE CRUST DIPPERS



Apple Pear Butter with Pie Crust Dippers image

Provided by Trisha Yearwood

Categories     condiment

Time 9h

Yield 1 quart fruit butter

Number Of Ingredients 11

6 Gala apples (about 2 pounds), peels on, cut into 1-inch chunks
6 Bartlett pears (about 2 pounds), peels on, cut into 1-inch chunks
1 1/2 cups apple cider
1 tablespoon maple syrup
1 chai tea bag
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
One 9-inch round pie dough
1 large egg, lightly beaten
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon apple pie spice
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

Steps:

  • For the apple pear butter: Place the apples and pears in the insert of a slow cooker. Pour the apple cider and maple syrup over the fruit, then drop the tea bag in and sprinkle with the salt. Gently stir to coat the fruit, being mindful not to break the tea bag. Cover and set to cook on high until the fruit is completely tender, about 8 hours. Discard the tea bag.
  • Scoop the fruit into the bowl of a food processor with a slotted spoon and pulse until smooth, working in batches if necessary, about 1 minute. Pour the fruit puree into a large nonstick pot. Place the pot over low heat and bring to a simmer, then simmer until the volume is reduced by a third and the color darkens and intensifies, 35 to 40 minutes.
  • For the pie crust dippers: Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment.
  • Place the round of pie dough on a cutting board. Add a splash of water to the beaten egg and brush the crust with the egg wash. Combine the sugar, apple pie spice and salt in a small bowl and sprinkle evenly over the pie dough. Use a pizza cutter or knife to slice the round into 20 strips. Place on the lined baking sheet and bake until golden brown and crispy, 10 to 15 minutes. Set aside to cool for a few minutes.
  • Serve the butter alongside the pie crust dippers or store in an airtight container, refrigerated, for up to 2 weeks. If preparing in advance, allow to cool completely before covering and storing.

CRUST
1 1/3 c all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 stick butter flavored crisco baking stick shortening, well-chilled
6 Tbsp ice cold water
PIE FILLING
1/2 c all-purpose flour
1/2 c granulated sugar
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1 dash(es) pumpkin pie spice
1 dash(es) nutmeg
1/2 tsp salt
3 Tbsp lemon juice

STREUSEL TOPPING
1/2 c all-purpose flour
1/2 c brown sugar, packed
6 Tbsp chilled butter, cut into small pieces

Steps:

  • 1. PREHEAT OVEN TO 375°
  • 2. FOR THE CRUST: BLEND flour and salt in medium mixing bowl. CUT chilled shortening into 1/2-inch cubes. Cut in chilled shortening cubes into flour mixture, using a pastry blender, in an up and down chopping motion, until mixture resembles coarse crumbs with some small pea-sized pieces remaining. SPRINKLE half the maximum recommended amount of ice cold water over the flour mixture. Using a fork, stir and draw flour from bottom of bowl to the top, distributing moisture evenly into flour. Press chunks down to bottom of bowl with fork. Add more water by the tablespoon, until dough is moist enough to hold together when pressed together. ROLL dough from center outward with steady pressure on a lightly floured work surface (or between two sheets of wax or parchment paper) into a circle 2-inches wider than pie plate for the bottom crust. Transfer dough to a pie plate coated with cooking spray by loosely rolling around rolling pin. Center the rolling pin over the pie plate, and then unroll, easing dough into pie plate. Trim edges of dough leaving a 3/4-inch overhang. Fold edge under. Flute dough as desired. Set aside in the refrigerator while making pie filling.
  • 3. FOR THE PIE FILLING: combine flour, sugar, cinnamon and salt in a large bowl. Add lemon juice, apples and pears to the flour mixture. Toss gently to coat. Arrange pear-apple mixture in an even layer in prepared crust.
  • 4. FOR THE STREUSEL TOPPING: combine flour and brown sugar in a medium bowl. Add cold butter and cut in with a pastry blender or 2 knives until mixture resembles coarse meal. Sprinkle evenly over pear-apple mixture. Bake for 1 hour or until lightly brown. Topping will be crunchy. Let cool for an hour before serving.

Categories     dessert

Time 2h20m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup cornstarch or tapioca starch
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup buttermilk
1/4 cup store-bought dulce de leche, plus more for garnish
4 large eggs
1 large or 2 small d'Anjou pears
1 baked 9-inch deep-dish pie crust, recipe follows, or store bought
1/2 cup dried apple slices
Ground cinnamon, for garnish
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for rolling
1/2 teaspoon sugar
8 tablespoons (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cubed
6 tablespoons ice water
Nonstick cooking spray, for spraying pie plate
1 egg beaten with 1 tablespoon water

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Combine the sugar, 2 tablespoons of the cornstarch and the salt in a large bowl. In a medium bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, dulce de leche and eggs until well combined. Add the egg mixture to the cornstarch mixture and whisk to combine.
  • Halve and core the pear. Cut lengthwise into 1/4-inch slices. Add the slices to a bowl with the remaining 2 tablespoons cornstarch and toss to completely coat the fruit.
  • To assemble the pie and bake, place the baked deep-dish pie crust on a baking sheet. Lay the dried apple slices in a single layer on the bottom of the crust. Fan the pear slices out in a circle over the apple slices. Stir any excess cornstarch from the pears into the custard filling and pour the filling over the top of the pears.
  • Bake the pie until the center is set and the pears are slightly golden brown, about 1 hour. Let cool to room temperature.
  • Before serving, dust the top of the pie with ground cinnamon. Heat some dulce de leche in a microwave for 30 seconds and stir to loosen. Drizzle over the top of the pie and serve.
  • In the bowl of a food processor, combine the flour, sugar and salt and pulse to mix. Add the butter and pulse to a coarse meal (the butter should be in pea-size pieces). With the motor running, stream in the water until the dough starts to come together. Dump out the mixture, gather into a ball, press to a disk and wrap well in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour, and up to overnight.
  • Spray a 9-inch deep-dish glass pie plate with nonstick cooking spray. Remove the dough from the fridge, unwrap and transfer to a floured surface. Roll out the dough into a 12-inch circle. Transfer the dough to the prepared pie plate. Dock with a fork and crimp the edges between your fingers to make a decorative border, removing any excess dough. Freeze the crust for 20 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Line the crust with a sheet of parchment paper and fill with pie weights or uncooked beans. Bake for 15 minutes. Remove the foil and weights, brush with the beaten egg and continue to bake until the crust is golden brown, about 10 minutes. Let cool completely.

APPLE-PEAR CRUMBLE PIE



Apple-Pear Crumble Pie image

I found this easy, delicious dessert in Kraft Food & Family magazine when searching for something to take to a Thanksgiving-themed potluck dinner. Everyone raved about it, and there was a lot of happiness that I had been out of pumpkin at the time, forcing me to look for something else! You can change the amount of fruit you add depending on the size of the fruit and the size of your crust- the original called for 2 apples, but I could only get 1 in my crust.

APPLE PEAR PIE



Apple Pear Pie image

This is a terrifically delicious apple pear pie. The tartness of the Granny Smith apples combines wonderfully with the pears. The apples and pears are cooked down with sugars and seasonings to a nice consistency and flavor. Cinnamon butter brushed on the crust gives it a nice color. This pie holds its shape well when sliced.

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Apples and Pears: Use a combination of tart and sweet apples, such as Granny Smith and Honeycrisp, for a balanced flavor. For pears, Bartlett or Anjou pears are good choices.
  • Peel and Slice the Fruit Thinly: This will help the fruit cook evenly and create a tender filling.
  • Use Fresh Lemon Juice: Fresh lemon juice helps to brighten the flavor of the filling and prevent the fruit from browning.
  • Don't Overfill the Pie Crust: Leave about 1/2 inch of space around the edges of the crust so that the filling has room to bubble and expand.
  • Brush the Crust with Milk or Cream: This will help the crust to brown and give it a golden color.
  • Bake the Pie Until the Crust is Golden Brown and the Filling is Bubbling: This usually takes about 45-50 minutes.
  • Let the Pie Cool Before Serving: This will allow the filling to set and make it easier to slice.
