Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large bowl, combine the apple slices, lemon juice, flour, sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Toss until the apples are well coated.
- Lay 1 of the pie crusts in a 9-inch (23-cm) pie dish. Add the apple slices to the bottom of the crust. Place the other pie crust over the apple slices.
- Trim any extra dough from the edges. Press the rounded edge of spoon facedown around the edge, making shallow indentations to crimp the crusts together.
- Cut 4 slits in the top of the pie for ventilation, then brush with the beaten egg.
- Bake the pie for 50-60 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and no grey-ish or undercooked pastry remains. Let cool completely.
- In a medium saucepan, combine the heavy cream, brown sugar, and honey. Cook over medium heat until the sugar is dissolved, about 2 minutes.
- Whisk in the butter and bring to a boil.
- Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the caramel reaches a thick consistency.
- Let the caramel sauce cool for 5 minutes, then pour over the pie. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt.
- Slice and serve.
- Enjoy!

CARAMEL ROSE APPLE PIE RECIPE BY TASTY
Here's what you need: apples, lemon, granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, prepared pie dough, heavy cream

Steps:
- Peel the apples and place them in a large bowl with enough water to cover. Squeeze lemon juice in the water to prevent the apples from browning. Working with 1 apple at a time, cut around the core, discarding the core and removing the "cheeks." Slice the cheeks very thin.
- In a large bowl, combine the granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg. Stir to combine. Add the sliced apples, stir to coat, and let sit for 30 minutes.
- Line a pie dough in a 9-inch (23-cm) cast-iron pan, and prick the dough with a fork all around. Chill in the fridge until very firm, 20-30 minutes.
- Working in batches, remove the apples from the cinnamon-sugar mixture by taking a handful at a time and carefully squeezing them with your hands to remove the excess moisture. Place the drained apples in a separate large bowl, reserving the liquid to make the caramel sauce.
- Preheat the oven to 375˚F (190˚C).
- Working from the outside in, line the apple slices on the pie dough by overlapping each slice to create a rose shape. Roll up 1 apple slice tightly and place it in the center, creating a bud shape. Cover the pan with foil and bake for 30 minutes. Uncover and bake for 10 minutes more, or until golden brown. Remove from the oven and let cool for 10 minutes.
- In a saucepan, bring the reserved cinnamon-sugar liquid to a boil. Once the liquid is reduced by half, 10-15 minutes, add the heavy cream and stir well.
- To serve, pour the caramel sauce over the apple pie.
- Enjoy!

Steps:
- For the perfect spiced pie crust: Mix the flour, cinnamon, salt and nutmeg in a bowl. Add the butter and vegetable shortening. Work the butter into the flour using a pastry cutter until the mixture resembles tiny pebbles. Add the white vinegar, egg and 5 tablespoons cold water and stir until just combined.
- Form 2 equal-sized balls. Place each in a large plastic bag (do not seal) and slightly flatten with a rolling pin; this makes it much easier to roll out the crust later. After flattening, seal the bag tightly. Place in the freezer for 15 to 20 minutes to chill.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Remove 1 bag of dough from the freezer (save the other dough for another use), remove the dough from the bag and place it on a lightly floured surface. Roll the dough starting at the center and working outward. Be gentle and patient; it'll take a little time to get the dough completely rolled out. If you think the bottom is really sticking to the surface below while rolling, use a metal spatula to loosen it. When fully rolled out, loosen again with a spatula and lift the pie crust into a 9-inch pie pan (or you can roll the pastry over the rolling pin, lift it onto the pie pan and unroll it). Gently press the dough against the corner of the pan and tear off any excess dough. Then tuck under the edges and go around the pie pan pinching the dough to crimp the edge.
- For the pie filling: In a bowl, mix the apples, lemon juice, granulated sugar, flour and salt. Set aside.
- For the crumb topping: Cut the butter into the flour with a pastry cutter, then add in the brown sugar, oats and salt.
- Add the apples to the prepared pie shell and top with the crumb topping. Bake for 1 hour, covering the edge of the crust with foil if it starts to brown too quickly. After an hour, sprinkle the chopped pecans over the pie, then bake for a further 5 minutes.
- Remove the pie from the oven and pour 1/2 jar (or more, if you're feeling dangerous and naughty) of caramel topping over the top. Allow to cool slightly before serving - or don't if you can't wait!
CHEF JOHN'S CARAMEL APPLE PIE
To me, this is the purest and most intensely flavored apple pie recipe there is. The interesting thing about this recipe is the way the caramel sauce is poured over the apples and the lattice crust. You know how with a traditional apple pie some of the apple juices will caramelize as it bakes and bubble out of the pie and bake into and onto the flaky crust? That's how this whole pie is.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
- Combine butter, white sugar, brown sugar, water, cinnamon, and salt in a saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil, remove from heat and set aside.
- Roll out half the pastry to fit a 9-inch pie plate. Place bottom crust in pie plate; pour in apple slices.
- Roll out top crust into a 10-inch circle. Cut into 8 (1-inch) wide strips with a sharp paring knife or pastry wheel. Weave the pastry strips, one at a time, into a lattice pattern. Fold the ends of the lattice strips under the edge of the bottom crust and crimp to seal.
- Pour butter-sugar mixture over top of pie, coating the lattice, and allowing any remaining sauce to drizzle through the crust.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C), and bake until the crust is golden brown, the caramel on the top crust is set, and the apple filling is bubbling, 35 to 40 more minutes. Allow to cool completely before slicing.

Steps:
- Make the pie dough: In a large bowl, mix together the flour and salt. Add the butter and toss to coat each cube with the flour, then smash each piece of butter with your fingers.
- Add the ice water, 1-2 tablespoons at a time, and continue to toss until the dough holds together when pressed between your hands. You may not need all of the water, but if the dough is too dry, add more, 1 teaspoon at a time, as needed. The dough should not be very tacky or sticky.
- Turn the dough onto a clean surface. Work into 2 discs and cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
- Make the filling: Melt the butter in a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the apples, lemon juice, brown sugar, salt, pumpkin pie spice, and vanilla bean paste. Stir to coat the apples well and cook until they start to soften and release their juices and the sugar dissolves, 5-7 minutes.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and water. Pour the slurry over the apples, increase the heat to high, and cook until the juices are boiling and thickened, 3-4 minutes.
- Remove the pot from the heat and let the filling cool to room temperature, about 30 minutes.
- Make the apple cider syrup: Add the apple cider to a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring to boil and cook until reduced to 2 tablespoons with the consistency of maple syrup, about 10 minutes. Remove the pot from the heat and let the syrup cool to room temperature.
- Assemble the pie: On a floured surface, roll a disc of pie dough into a 12-inch (30 cm) round, about ¼ inch (6 mm) thick. Transfer to a 9-inch (22 cm) deep dish pie plate.
- Add the apple filling to the crust, along with any accumulated juices from the bottom of the bowl. Drizzle the apple cider syrup on top. Refrigerate while you roll out the other dough.
- Roll out the remaining dough disc to a 12-inch (30 cm) round. Drape over the pie, then pinch the edges together. Trim any excess dough around the edges, then roll the edges under all the way around the pie. Use the knuckle of an index finger on one hand and your index finger and thumb on the other hand to make large crimps around the edges.
- Brush the dough all over with the egg wash. Use a paring knife to cut a few vents in the top to allow steam to escape.
- Transfer the assembled pie to the freezer for 20 minutes, until firm.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
- Place the pie dish on the prepared baking sheet, then transfer to the oven and bake for 80-90 minutes, covering with foil halfway through. Cook until the juices are bubbling and the crust is golden brown. Remove the pie from the oven and let cool for at least 1 hour.
- Meanwhile, make the salted caramel: Add the sugar, water, and corn syrup to a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a low boil and cook until the sugar dissolves and mixture starts to turn a light copper color, about 10 minutes.
- Remove the pot from the heat and stir in the cream and salt until incorporated. If the caramel seems too thin, return to medium low heat and boil until thickened to your desired consistency, 1-2 minutes. Transfer the caramel to a heat-proof liquid measuring cup and let cool to room temperature, 30-60 minutes.
- Pour the cooled caramel sauce over the pie and garnish with candied pecans.
- Slice and serve.
- Enjoy!

Steps:
- Make the pie dough: In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, and salt. Add the butter cubes and toss to coat. Use a bench scraper to cut the butter into the flour until the butter is broken down to lima bean-sized cubes.
- In a small bowl or liquid measuring cup, stir together the vodka, water, and ice.
- Sprinkle ¼ cup of the liquid over the flour mixture and use a bench scraper or your hands to incorporate until the dough begins to come together. Sprinkle in ¼ cup more liquid and continue mixing. If the dough isn't coming together, sprinkle the dry bits with more small drops of the liquid as necessary; the dough will look shaggy. Fold the dough over itself to bring it together until all of the flour is incorporated. Discard the remaining liquid.
- Turn the dough onto a clean surface and use the bench scraper to divide it into 2 equal pieces. Shape each piece into a flat disc and wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, but preferably overnight, before rolling out.
- Make the caramel: In a small saucepan, combine the water and sugar and cook over medium heat, without stirring, until golden brown in color, about 10 minutes.
- Remove the pot from the heat, add the butter, and whisk to combine. Return the pot to the heat and pour in the cream (be careful; the mixture will bubble). Whisk well to combine, then remove the pot from the heat and set aside to cool.
- Make the apple filling: Peel the apples and cut in half, then remove the cores and cut the halves into quarters. Transfer to a large bowl and add the lemon juice and Angostura bitters. Toss to coat the apples.
- In a small bowl, mix together the sugar, arrowroot, cinnamon, allspice, and nutmeg. Sprinkle the dry ingredients over the apples and use your hands to toss until evenly coated.
- Assemble the pie: Dust a clean surface and a rolling pin with flour. Place a chilled disc of pie dough on the surface and lightly dust with flour. Roll out the dough, starting from the center and lightly pressing down with the rolling pin to flatten slightly. Rotate the dough 90° and repeat, pressing down so it's evenly flattened all around, about ⅛ inch thick, then roll outward to make a circle. Continue rolling and rotating until the dough is about 2-3 inches larger in diameter than the pie dish.
- Drape the dough gently into the pie dish, being careful not to stretch it.
- Pour about ½ cup of the caramel sauce into the pie shell, then top with the apple filling, avoiding gaps. Mound the apples slightly in the middle of the pie.
- Roll out the remaining disc of pie dough. Using a pizza cutter or sharp knife, cut the dough into 8 strips of equal width. Assemble the lattice on top of the pie and press the edges of the top and bottom crusts together, then trim and crimp the edges as desired.
- Brush any exposed dough with egg wash and sprinkle with raw sugar. Freeze for 1 hour.
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Place the pie on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake for 15 minutes, then reduce the oven temperature to 350°F (180°C) and continue baking for 60 minutes more, until the apples are tender and the crust is golden brown.
- Let the pie cool for at least 1 hour before slicing and serving.
- Enjoy!

Steps:
- Prepare the pie crust: Whisk flour and salt together in a large bowl. Add butter and toss until butter pieces are completely separated and coated with flour mixture. Using your hands, work butter into flour mixture until well combined and butter pieces are no larger than a pea. Add 1/4 cup cold water and gently stir with a spatula until completely absorbed. Add remaining 1/4 cup water, 1 tablespoon at a time, gently stirring between each addition, until dough begins to form into a ball. Depending on how humid it is in your kitchen or how hydrated your flour is, you might not need to use all of the water.
- Transfer dough to a clean work surface and gently knead, being careful not to overwork it, until smooth and slightly tacky. Divide dough evenly into 2 pieces. Form each piece into a flat disk and wrap individually in plastic wrap. Chill dough in a refrigerator for at least 1 hour or up to 3 days. If chilled longer than 1 hour, let sit at room temperature at least 15 minutes before rolling.
- While the dough is chilling, prepare the caramel sauce. Heat sugar in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until sugar is completely melted and amber in color, 10 to 15 minutes. Add butter to melted sugar and cook, stirring constantly, until butter is melted and completely combined, about 1 minute.
- Carefully add heavy cream to sugar mixture, stirring constantly, until bubbly, 15 to 30 seconds. Remove saucepan from heat and stir in sea salt. Set caramel sauce aside to cool slightly at room temperature until ready to use.
- Prepare the filling: stir apples, sugar, flour, lemon juice, cornstarch, cinnamon, salt, cloves, and nutmeg together in a large bowl until well combined. Set apple mixture aside at room temperature, uncovered, for 30 minutes.
- Pour apple mixture through a strainer into a large bowl. Set apple mixture aside, and transfer the liquid to a small saucepan. Bring liquid to a boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until thickened. Remove saucepan from heat and set aside at room temperature.
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Position oven rack in bottom third of oven.
- Working with one dough disk at a time on a surface lightly dusted with flour, roll each disk into a 1/8-inch thick circle that measures 12 inches in diameter. Place one dough circle in a 9-inch pie pan and gently press dough into the corners and sides of the pan.
- Stir together apples and reduced apple liquid in large bowl; arrange apple mixture in the pie crust, and drizzle with 1/2 cup of the caramel sauce. Place remaining dough circle over apple mixture and press into apple mixture and into edges of pan. Using your fingers, fold edges under and crimp to seal. Brush top and edges of dough with egg and sprinkle with turbinado sugar. Cut eight 1-inch slits in dough with a sharp paring knife to allow steam to escape. Place pie on a rimmed sheet pan.
- Bake in the preheated oven until top is light golden in color, about 20 minutes. Without removing the pie, reduce oven temperature to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C), and continue baking until dough is deep golden brown and the filling is starting to bubble, about 25 minutes. Gently cover pie with aluminum foil, and continue baking until a knife inserted removes mostly clean, about 25 minutes.
- Remove pie from oven and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely, about 2 hours. Serve pie with remaining caramel sauce, if desired.

Tips:
- Use a variety of apples. This will give your pie a more complex flavor and texture. Some good choices include Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Pink Lady.
- Peel and core your apples thinly. This will help them cook evenly.
- Add a little lemon juice to your apples. This will help to prevent them from browning.
- Use a deep-dish pie plate. This will help to prevent your pie from overflowing.
- Don't overfill your pie crust. Leave about 1 inch of space around the edges.
- Brush the edges of your pie crust with milk or cream before baking. This will help to create a golden brown crust.
- Bake your pie in a preheated oven. This will help to ensure that it cooks evenly.
- Let your pie cool for at least 1 hour before serving. This will help the filling to set.
Conclusion:
Apple caramel pie is a delicious and classic dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its flaky crust, sweet and tart apples, and gooey caramel filling, it's sure to be a hit with everyone. So next time you're looking for a special dessert, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
