Deep-Dish French Apple Pie image

This French apple pie is full of apples. No sinking because you partially precook the apples to prevent shrinkage during baking. It is topped with a sweet crumble. My family's favorite.

Time 55m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 10

12 cups peeled and sliced apples
2 cups white sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground ginger
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 ½ cups apple juice
1 (9 inch) prebaked deep dish pie shell
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup white sugar
1 cup unsalted butter, cut into pieces

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Prepare pie: Combine apples, sugar, cinnamon, and ginger in a saucepan. Dissolve cornstarch in apple juice and add to apples. Heat over medium heat until juice thickens and is translucent and apples are slightly softened, 4 to 5 minutes. Do not overcook.
  • Spoon apples into the pie crust using a slotted spoon (heap those apples in). Add juices until pie dish is full, but not overflowing, so it won't spill over.
  • Mix flour and sugar for topping together in a bowl; cut in butter with a pastry blender until combined. Spread over filling. Do not pack in.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until bubbly and browned and apples are tender, about 30 minutes. Let set and cool completely before serving.

This recipe seems a bit complicated for me. I think I'll stick to my usual apple pie recipe.

Wow! I tried this recipe and it turned out amazing. The apples were perfectly tender and the crust was golden brown and flaky. My family loved it!

This deep-dish French apple pie was an absolute delight! The buttery, flaky crust perfectly complemented the tender, caramelized apples. The hint of cinnamon and nutmeg added a warm, comforting flavor.
