APPLE PIE WITH CHEESE, PLEASE



Apple Pie with Cheese, Please image

This apple pie has Cheddar cheese baked right inside! Cheddar lines the bottom of the crust and perfectly harmonizes with the apples. Just like you'd find flatbread with goat cheese and honey, the cheese baked right in with the apples provides a buttery and melty texture.

Time 1h30m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 Golden Delicious apples, plus 3 Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored, sliced thin and tossed with 1 tablespoon lemon juice
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/2 cup brown sugar, firmly packed
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cornstarch
1 1/2 cups water
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup, plus 1 tablespoon sugar
1 1/4 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup unsalted butter, chilled
2/3 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla

Steps:

  • To prepare filling: Melt butter in a 10-inch cast-iron skillet over medium heat, add apple slices and cook, stirring frequently, for about 15 minutes. Mix flour, sugars, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt in a bowl and gently stir mixture into apples. Continue to cook until apples are soft but not mushy, about 5 minutes.
  • Mix cornstarch and 1 1/2 cups water together in a small bowl, and stir into apple mixture. Set aside.
  • To prepare topping: Mix together flour, 1/4 cup sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. Using 2 knives or a pastry blender, cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add the milk and vanilla, and quickly blend together with spatula.
  • To assemble the pie: Drop heaping tablespoons of biscuit mixture on top of apples, covering most of the center of the mixture. Sprinkle top with remaining sugar and bake in preheated 350-degree oven for 25 to 40 minutes, or until top is golden. Remove pie from oven and let stand for at least 5 minutes before serving.

Tips:

  • Use a large skillet: This will ensure that the pie has enough room to spread out and cook evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet: If you add too many apples, they will not cook evenly and the pie will be soggy.
  • Use a combination of sweet and tart apples: This will give the pie a well-balanced flavor.
  • Be careful not to overcook the apples: They should be tender but still hold their shape.
  • Use a good quality cheese: This will make a big difference in the flavor of the pie.
  • Don't skimp on the butter: It will add richness and flavor to the pie.
  • Let the pie cool slightly before serving: This will allow the filling to set and make it easier to slice.

Conclusion:

The Cheesy Apple Skillet Pie is an easy and delicious dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is made with simple ingredients and can be easily customized to your own liking. Whether you are looking for a quick and easy weeknight dessert or a special treat for a party, this pie is sure to please everyone.
