Time 2h

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
1 large egg, beaten
1 14-ounce box refrigerated pie dough
All-purpose flour, for dusting
2 pounds crisp apples (such as Granny Smith or Gala)
1/2 cup golden raisins
1 cup pitted dried plums
1 cup dried figs
1/2 cup dried cherries
1/3 cup sugar
1 tablespoon instant tapioca
2 teaspoons orange-flavored liqueur or apple brandy
1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Roll out 1 piece of dough into a 12-inch round on a lightly floured surface. Ease into a 9-inch pie plate; chill until ready to use.
  • Make the filling: Peel and chop the apples. Pulse the apples, raisins, and dried plums, figs and cherries in a food processor until chunky. Transfer to a large bowl and toss with the sugar, tapioca, orange liqueur, lemon zest, cinnamon, salt and allspice. Spoon into the crust and dot with the butter.
  • Roll out the second piece of dough into a 12-inch round on a lightly floured surface. Cut into 1/2-inch-wide strips with a knife. Arrange half of the strips in parallel rows over the filling, about 1/2 inch apart. Working with 1 strip at a time, arrange the remaining strips perpendicular to the first ones, weaving the strips over and under, to form a lattice. Fold the overhanging dough under itself and crimp the edge with your fingers. Brush the lattice crust with the beaten egg.
  • Put the pie on a rimmed baking sheet and transfer to the oven; bake until the crust is golden and the filling is bubbly, about 1 hour. (Cover the edge with foil if it is browning too quickly.) Transfer to a rack and let cool until set, about 3 hours.

I'm not a big fan of apple pie, but this one changed my mind. The lattice crust is so flaky and the filling is perfectly spiced.

I used a mix of dried cranberries, raisins, and chopped walnuts in my pie, and it turned out so flavorful and festive. I'm definitely adding this recipe to my holiday baking rotation.
