Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour, or more as needed
¾ cup shortening, chilled and cubed
1 teaspoon Diamond Crystal® Fine Sea Salt
6 tablespoons ice-cold water, or more as needed
⅔ cup granulated sugar
¼ cup all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
¼ teaspoon ground allspice
⅛ teaspoon ground ginger
⅛ teaspoon Diamond Crystal® Fine Sea Salt
8 Red Delicious apples, peeled and thinly sliced
½ teaspoon lemon extract
2 tablespoons butter, cut in small pieces
1 (11 ounce) package caramels, unwrapped
1 tablespoon water, or more as needed
Vanilla ice cream
Diamond Crystal® Coarse Sea Salt

Steps:

  • Blend flour and 1 teaspoon Diamond Crystal® Fine Sea Salt in mixing bowl. Cut shortening into flour mixture using a pastry blender until it resembles pea-sized crumbs. Sprinkle ice water over the top, 1 tablespoon at a time. Mix gently with a fork after each addition until dough holds together. Divide the dough into 2 pieces; one a little larger than the other. Flatten into round disks, wrap in plastic film, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  • Put apple slices in a large bowl and sprinkle with lemon extract. Combine sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, ginger, Diamond Crystal® Fine Sea Salt in a small bowl. Sprinkle sugar mixture over apples and mix to distribute evenly.
  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
  • Lightly flour flat rolling surface. Roll out the larger disk until it is 2 inches bigger than the pie plate. Carefully place crust into bottom of pie plate, and press evenly into bottom and sides. Pierce the botton with a fork several times. Fill bottom crust with filling and dot with butter pats.
  • Roll out top crust and carefully place over top. Fold bottom crust edge over top and flute. Cut 2 to 4 slits in top. Cover edges of crust with aluminum foil.
  • Bake for 50 minutes. Remove foil for the last 15 minutes. Cool on rack. Serve warm, if desired.
  • Make topping just before serving. Place caramels in a microwave-safe bowl. Add 1 tablespoon of water. Heat for 1 minute at a time on high stirring after each time until caramels are creamy, but no more than 3 minutes. Add additional water, if needed, to get desired consistency.
  • Top slices of pie with your favorite vanilla ice cream. Drizzle caramel sauce over ice cream and pie. Then sprinkle a pinch of Diamond Crystal® Coarse Sea Salt over the caramel sauce.

This pie was a disappointment. The apples were mushy and the crust was soggy.

The crust on this pie was a bit tough. I think I would try a different recipe for the crust next time.

This pie is a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less sugar in the filling.
