APPLE PIE, CIRCUS-STYLE



Apple Pie, Circus-Style image

This winter in Paris, my husband went out every morning, walked to Circus bakery and returned home with an apple pie, a really good one. The rustic pie - a cross between an American open-face pie and a French galette - is made with a sturdy, rather wet dough. Chill the dough overnight and it will be a dream to work with. The filling is a generous mound of unpeeled, thinly sliced, lightly sweetened apples, flavored with an abundance of lemon juice and zest and, so surprisingly, not a speck of spice. At Circus, the palm-size pies are pentagonal. The dough is lifted up around the apples, pinched and pressed into shape. To learn to make the pastry at home, I watched Circus's bakers at work. I loved how each had a particular way of forming the pies. But, most of all, I loved that no matter how they shaped them, in the end, they all looked beautiful. My pie looks beautiful and yours will, too.

Time 1h15m

Yield 3 pies (6 servings)

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 1/2 cups/340 grams bread flour
1/3 cup/40 grams whole-wheat flour
4 1/2 teaspoons granulated sugar
1 teaspoon fine sea salt
1 cup/225 grams cold unsalted butter (2 sticks), cut into small chunks
1/2 cup/120 milliliters ice water
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
5 teaspoons bread flour
1 lemon, zested, then juiced
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
4 medium sweet apples (1 to 1 1/2 pounds; 450 to 680 grams), such as Golden Delicious, Fuji or Gala
1 egg, for finishing
Demerara or sanding sugar, for finishing

Steps:

  • Make the dough: Put the bread flour, whole-wheat flour, sugar and salt in the bowl of a food processor, and whir to combine. Drop in the chunks of butter, then process in 8 to 10 long pulses, scraping the bowl often, until the ingredients look like coarse crumbs and hold together when pressed.
  • Stir together the ice water and vinegar in a measuring cup, then pour the liquid over the dough as you pulse the machine, forming a moist dough. Scrape the dough onto a work surface, shape into a log and divide into thirds. Press each piece into a disk, wrap tightly and refrigerate overnight.
  • The next day, working between sheets of parchment, roll each piece of dough into an 8-inch circle that's a scant 1/4-inch thick. Cut each piece into a 7-inch circle, cover with the parchment and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to 2 days. (Leftover dough can be used to make a smaller pie or to make cookies.)
  • Make the filling: Stir the sugar, flour and zest together in a large bowl, then stir in the butter and lemon juice. Quarter and core the apples, leaving the peel on, and slice them very thinly; a food processor or mandoline works best here. (You want about 5 loosely packed cups.) Add apples to the large bowl, and use your hands to toss until they're coated with the sugar mixture.
  • Assemble the pies: Working with 1 circle of dough at a time, peel away the top sheet of paper, and lightly score a 4-inch circle in the center of the dough. Pile apples inside the circle, pressing to make a compact mound about 1 1/2 inches high and leaving a bare border of about 1 1/2 inches.
  • The final pie should have five sides, and all the corners should point in the same direction. For this effect, lift a piece of the dough up, and hold it against the apples. Lift a piece of dough next to it, press it against the apples and grab the triangle of dough that forms where the two layers meet. Holding the point of the triangle, pull it down so that the tip of the triangle is at the base of the pie. With your index finger, firmly press the point of the triangle into the base to seal it in place. Continue until you've got a pentagonal pie.
  • Repeat with the remaining circles of dough and apples. (You may have some apples leftover.) Refrigerate the pies while you heat the oven. (You can cover and refrigerate the pies for up to 1 day.)
  • Center a rack in the oven, and heat it to 375 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, and transfer the pies to the sheet.
  • Stir a splash of water into the egg, and brush a little on the sides of the pies, avoiding the top rim of the pie dough. Sprinkle the sides with Demerara sugar.
  • Bake the pies until the crust is beautifully golden and a knife inserted into the apples meets little resistance, about 45 minutes. Transfer the sheet to a rack, and allow the pies to cool for at least 30 minutes before serving.

Time 2h25m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

Unsalted butter, for greasing the pan
3/4 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup apple cider
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
2 pounds Granny Smith apples
2 pounds Honeycrisp apples
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (see Cook's Note)
1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
2/3 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup pecans, coarsely chopped
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
2 sticks (1 cup) cold unsalted butter, cubed

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 9-by-13-inch baking dish.
  • For the filling: Whisk together the brown sugar, flour, apple cider, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt in a large bowl. Peel and core the apples and cut into chunks. Add the apples to the brown sugar mixture and toss to combine.
  • Transfer the apple mixture to the prepared baking dish in an even layer.
  • For the topping: Combine the flour, oats, brown sugar, pecans, cinnamon and salt in a medium bowl. Add the butter cubes and use your fingers to completely work the butter into the flour mixture. The mixture should hold its shape when squeezed.
  • Sprinkle the crumble topping over the filling, squeezing some of the mixture into small clumps. Bake until the filling is bubbly, the apples are tender and the topping is golden brown, about 1 hour.
  • Let sit for at least 45 minutes and serve slightly warm or at room temperature.

Tips: Apple Circles Delights

  • Choose the right apples: Use firm, tart apples like Granny Smith or Honeycrisp.
  • Slice the apples evenly: This will help them cook evenly and look more attractive.
  • Use a sharp knife: A dull knife will crush the apples and make them more difficult to slice.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: Cook the apples in a single layer so they can brown evenly.
  • Cook the apples until they are tender: But not too soft, or they will fall apart.
  • Don't stir the apples too much: Stirring them too much will break them up and make them mushy.
  • Serve the apples warm or cold: They are delicious either way.
  • Garnish with cinnamon, sugar, or whipped cream: This will add extra flavor and visual appeal.
