SPICED APPLE PIE



Spiced Apple Pie image

Provided by Molly Yeh

Time 2h50m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 26

8 apples, such as Gala (about 2 1/4 pounds)
Juice of 1 lemon
1 cup packed dark brown sugar
3 tablespoons cornstarch
2 teaspoons Warm Spice Blend, recipe follows
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 tablespoons boiled cider syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 cup (2 sticks) cold unsalted butter, cubed
6 tablespoons ice water, plus more if needed
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
All-purpose flour, for dusting
2 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cubed
1 large egg, lightly beaten
4 1/2 teaspoons turbinado sugar
1 teaspoon flaky salt
Whipped cream, for serving
1 tablespoon ground cardamom
1 tablespoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

Steps:

  • For the filling: Cut the apples into 1/4-inch slices and place them in a large bowl. Toss with the lemon juice to keep them from browning. Add the brown sugar, cornstarch, Warm Spice Blend, kosher salt and cinnamon and toss to combine. Mix in the boiled cider syrup and vanilla. Cover the mixture and let it sit at room temperature while you make the pie dough.
  • For the pie dough: Add the flour, granulated sugar and kosher salt to a food processor and pulse to combine. Add the butter and pulse to incorporate so that about three-quarters of the mixture is mealy and the rest has some slightly larger, pea-sized bits of butter. Combine the ice water and cider vinegar in a measuring cup. Drizzle the water and vinegar into the food processor and continue to pulse just until the mixture comes together to form a dough. If it seems dry or is having a hard time coming together, add a bit more water, a few drops at a time, until it comes together.
  • Turn the dough out onto a clean surface and use your hands to press on any stray crumbs. Divide the dough in half, then divide one of the halves in half again so that you have 3 pieces of dough. Pat each piece into a disc and wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or until ready to roll out for the pie.
  • For the assembly: Flour a work surface and roll out the largest disc of dough into a circle just larger than 12 inches. Place it in a 9-inch pie plate and refrigerate. Roll out the 2 remaining dough discs to about 10 inches each. Cut the dough into 2-inch-wide strips for making a lattice top. Set the strips aside.
  • Position an oven rack in the lower third of the oven (with a pizza stone if you have one) and preheat to 400 degrees F.
  • Fill the pie crust with the apples (it will seem like a lot but they bake down!) and pour the juices over it. Distribute the butter over the top. Weave the dough strips together over and under to form a lattice crust over the top. Pinch the edges to seal, trim, fold the edges over and crimp. Give the edges a little hug to make sure they are sitting snugly on the rim of the pie plate; otherwise they could fall off in the oven. Freeze the pie for 15 minutes.
  • Brush the lattice with the egg wash, then sprinkle with the turbinado sugar and flaky salt. Place the pie on a baking sheet and bake until the internal temperature reaches 195 degrees F, 45 to 55 minutes. Let cool slightly.
  • Serve the pie with large dollops of whipped cream.
  • Layer the cardamom, ginger, cinnamon, cloves and nutmeg in a medium glass jar and tighten the lid. Shake to combine. Keep on hand to add to your favorite desserts and beverages -- or just toast with butter!

Pate Brisee for Spiced Apple Pie

  • Toss together apples, lemon zest and juice, sugars, flour, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg in a large bowl. Place filling in piecrust, mounding it in the center. Dot with butter. To make egg wash, whisk together egg yolk and cream in a small bowl. Lightly brush edge of piecrust with egg wash. Arrange dough rounds over filling, working in a spiral from the outside in to the center, overlapping them slightly. Lightly brush top of each round with egg wash as you work to help them adhere to one another.
  • Once the filling has been covered with rounds, lightly brush entire top of pie with egg wash. Sprinkle top with sanding sugar. Refrigerate pie for 1 hour.
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees, with racks in middle and lower positions. Place a foil-lined baking sheet on lower rack to catch any juices. Place pie on middle rack, and bake until crust begins to turn golden brown, about 25 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 375 degrees, and bake until crust is golden brown and juices are bubbling, about 1 hour, 10 minutes more. Tent with foil if crust browns too quickly.

Tips:

  • Choose the right apples. Use a variety of apples that will hold their shape when baked, such as Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, or Braeburn.
  • Peel and core the apples evenly. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Use a sharp knife to slice the apples. This will help prevent them from bruising.
  • Don't overcook the apples. They should be tender but still hold their shape.
  • Use a quality pie crust. You can make your own or use a store-bought crust.
  • Don't overfill the pie crust. Leave about 1 inch of space around the edges.
  • Brush the edges of the pie crust with milk or egg wash. This will help them brown.
  • Bake the pie at a high temperature for the first 15 minutes. This will help the crust set.
  • Reduce the temperature and continue baking until the pie is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.

Conclusion:

Apple pie is a classic American dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With a flaky crust and a sweet and tangy filling, it's sure to please everyone at your table. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced baker, these tips will help you make the best apple pie possible.
