CUSTARD APPLE PIE



Custard Apple Pie image

I found this recipe when I was looking for an alternative to double crusted apple pie but a little fancier than the Dutch version. This actually calls for peaches instead of apples, but having none on hand and "baker's itch" I substituted apples,added the cinnamon,and it turned out so well that I have yet to try it with peaches. I like it best served a little warm.

APPLE CUSTARD PIE WITH STREUSEL TOPPING RECIPE - (3.9/5)



Apple Custard Pie with Streusel Topping Recipe - (3.9/5) image

Provided by carvalhohm

Number Of Ingredients 16

Filling:
1 unbaked pie crust
3 large eggs
1/2 cup sour cream
3/4 cup applesauce
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup quick rolled oats
1/2 tablespoon cinnamon
3 cups apples, cored, peeled, and sliced
For the topping:
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup walnut pieces

Steps:

  • 1. Mix the eggs, sour cream, applesauce, sugars, salt, rolled oats, and cinnamon together. Stir the apple slices in. Set aside. 2. With a pastry blender, mix the 1/4-cup brown sugar, flour, butter, and walnut pieces in a small bowl to make the topping. Set aside. 3. Pour the filling mixture into the pie shell.Spoon the topping over the filling. 4. Cover the edges of the pie shell with aluminum foil. Bake for 30 minutes. Uncover the edges and bake for another 30 minutes or until done. Baker's note: As with most fruit pies, the secret of getting a crisp bottom crust is heat. Set the shelf for the bottom half of the oven closer to the heating element. Use a dark metal pie pan so that the pan absorbs, rather than reflects, heat.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe custard apples: Look for custard apples that are slightly soft to the touch and have a yellowish-green color. Avoid fruits that are too hard or have brown spots.
  • Prepare the custard apples properly: Cut the custard apples in half and scoop out the flesh with a spoon. Be careful to remove any seeds.
  • Use a variety of spices: Don't be afraid to experiment with different spices to flavor your custard apple pie. Some good options include cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cardamom.
  • Don't overcook the custard apples: Custard apples are delicate and can easily become mushy if they are overcooked. Cook them just until they are tender.
  • Let the pie cool completely before serving: This will allow the flavors to meld and the pie to set properly.

Conclusion:

Custard apple pie is a delicious and unique dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With its creamy, sweet custard apple filling and flaky crust, this pie is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
