DEEP-DISH APPLE PIE

Categories     dessert

Time 2h15m

Yield One 9-or 10-inch pie

Number Of Ingredients 19

4 pounds Granny Smith apples, peeled, quartered, and cored
1 lemon, zested
1 orange, zested
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed orange juice
1/2 cup sugar, plus 1 teaspoon to sprinkle on top
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon kosher salt
3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon ground allspice
Perfect Pie Crust, recipe follows
1 egg beaten with 1 tablespoon water, for egg wash
12 tablespoons (1 1/2 sticks) very cold unsalted butter
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon sugar
1/3 cup very cold vegetable shortening
6 to 8 tablespoons (about 1/2 cup) ice water

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Cut each apple quarter in thirds crosswise and combine in a bowl with the zests, juices, 1/2 cup sugar, flour, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and allspice.
  • Roll out half the pie dough and drape it over a 9- or 10-inch pie pan to extend about 1/2-inch over the rim. Don't stretch the dough; if it's too small, just put it back on the board and re-roll it.
  • Fill the pie with the apple mixture. Brush the edge of the bottom pie crust with the egg wash so the top crust will adhere. Top with the second crust and trim the edges to about 1-inch over the rim. Tuck the edge of the top crust under the edge of the bottom crust and crimp the 2 together with your fingers or a fork. Brush the entire top crust with the egg wash, sprinkle with 1 teaspoon sugar, and cut 4 or 5 slits.
  • Place the pie on a sheet pan and bake for 1 to 1 1/4 hours, or until the crust is browned and the juices begin to bubble out. Serve warm.
  • Dice the butter and return it to the refrigerator while you prepare the flour mixture. Place the flour, salt, and sugar in the bowl of a food processor fitted with a steel blade and pulse a few times to mix. Add the butter and shortening. Pulse 8 to 12 times, until the butter is the size of peas. With the machine running, pour the ice water down the feed tube and pulse the machine until the dough begins to form a ball. Dump out on a floured board and roll into a ball. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  • Cut the dough in half. Roll each piece on a well-floured board into a circle, rolling from the center to the edge, turning and flouring the dough to make sure it doesn't stick to the board. Fold the dough in half, place in a pie pan, and unfold to fit the pan. Repeat with the top crust.

DEEP-DISH APPLE PIE



Deep-Dish Apple Pie image

This hearty, rustic version of the classic American dessert puts all the focus on the texture and flavor of the apple filling.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Pie & Tarts Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 10

Pate Brisee for Deep-Dish Apple Pie
All-purpose flour, for dusting
5 1/2 pounds firm, tart apples, such as Empire
Juice of 2 lemons
1 cup sugar
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 cup brandy
1 large egg yolk
1 tablespoon sugar, for sprinkling

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 450 degrees. Place three-quarters of the pate brisee on a lightly floured work surface. Roll dough out to a 12-inch-diameter circle, 1/8 inch thick, dusting work surface with flour to prevent sticking, as necessary. Brush off excess flour; roll dough around rolling pin, and lift it over a deep-dish pie pan. Line the pan with the dough, pressing it into the corners. Trim dough so that it hangs over pie plate by about 1/4 inch. Roll out remaining dough to a 10-inch-diameter circle. Transfer dough round to a parchment-lined baking sheet, and refrigerate both crusts.
  • Peel and core apples, then cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices. As you cut, place slices in a large bowl, and sprinkle with lemon juice to prevent discoloration. In a small bowl, combine sugar and cinnamon. Toss apple slices with sugar mixture.
  • Divide butter between 2 large skillets, and melt over medium-high heat. Divide apples between skillets, and cook, stirring often, until sugar melts and apples are golden and coated in syrup but still firm, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Pour brandy into a measuring cup. Pour half the brandy into 1 skillet and carefully ignite with a match. Cook until flames die down, shaking pan to toss apples in melted sugar and brandy. Repeat with remaining brandy and apples. Remove from heat, and set aside.
  • Remove the crusts from the refrigerator; transfer cooked apples to prepared pie pan, letting apples mound in center. Whisk egg yolk with 2 tablespoons water to make egg glaze, and brush glaze on edge of dough. Center the rolled pie dough over apples. Tuck edges of top crust between pie pan and bottom crust. Using your fingers, gently press crusts together along edge, and crimp.
  • Cut several steam vents into crust. Brush surface with egg glaze, and sprinkle with remaining 1 tablespoon sugar.
  • Bake pie until golden brown on top, about 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 degrees and bake until the crust is crisp and the apples are soft, 45 to 50 minutes more. Let stand at least 30 minutes before serving.

DEEP-DISH APPLE PIE



Deep-Dish Apple Pie image

From Cooks Illustrated: "We wanted mounds of tender, juicy apples in our deep-dish pie, but first we had to wade through half-baked apples, soupy fillings, and sodden crusts." Use a combination of tart and sweet apples for this pie. Good choices for tart are Granny Smiths, Empires, or Cortlands; for sweet, we recommend Golden Delicious, Jonagolds, or Braeburns. Wrap leftovers tightly in plastic wrap and store at room temperature for up to 24 hours. To reheat, remove the wrap and warm the pie in a 350-degree oven for 15 to 20 minutes. See below for freezing instructions

Provided by senseicheryl

Categories     Pie

Time 1h5m

Yield 1 9 inch pie, 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour, plus additional
all-purpose flour, for work surface (12 1/2 ounces)
1 teaspoon table salt
1 tablespoon sugar
16 tablespoons unsalted butter, cold, cut into 1/2-inch cubes and frozen for 10 minutes
3 tablespoons sour cream
1/3 cup ice water (or more)
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon granulated sugar
1/4 cup light brown sugar, packed
1/4 teaspoon table salt
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon lemon zest, grated
1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 1/2 lbs tart apples, about 5 medium, peeled and cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices (see note)
2 1/2 lbs sweet apples, about 5 medium, peeled and cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices (see note)
1 egg white, beaten lightly

Steps:

  • For Pastry: Process flour, salt, and sugar together in food processor until combined, about 3 seconds. Add butter and pulse until butter is size of large peas, about ten 1-second pulses.
  • Using fork, mix sour cream and 1/3 cup ice water in small bowl until combined. Add half of sour cream mixture to flour mixture; pulse for three 1-second pulses. Repeat with remaining sour cream mixture. Pinch dough with fingers; if dough is floury, dry, and does not hold together, add 1 to 2 tablespoons ice water and process until dough forms large clumps and no dry flour remains, three to five 1-second pulses.
  • Turn dough out onto work surface. Divide dough into 2 balls and flatten each into 4-inch disk; wrap each disk in plastic and refrigerate until firm but not hard, 1 to 2 hours, before rolling. (Dough can be refrigerated for up to 24 hours. Let thoroughly chilled dough stand at room temperature for 15 minutes before rolling.).
  • For Pie: Mix 1/2 cup granulated sugar, brown sugar, salt, zest, and cinnamon in large bowl; add apples and toss to combine. Transfer apples to Dutch oven (do not wash bowl) and cook, covered, over medium heat, stirring frequently, until apples are tender when poked with fork but still hold their shape, 15 to 20 minutes. (Apples and juices should gently simmer during cooking.) Transfer apples and juices to rimmed baking sheet and cool to room temperature, about 30 minutes. While apples cool, adjust oven rack to lowest position, place empty rimmed baking sheet on rack, and heat oven to 425 degrees.
  • Remove 1 disk of dough from refrigerator and roll out between 2 large sheets of parchment paper or plastic wrap to 12-inch circle, about 1/8 inch thick. (If dough becomes soft and/or sticky, return to refrigerator until firm.) Remove parchment from one side of dough and flip onto 9-inch pie plate; peel off second layer of parchment. Working around circumference, ease dough into plate by gently lifting edge of dough with one hand while pressing into plate bottom with other hand. Leave dough that overhangs plate in place; refrigerate until dough is firm, about 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, roll second disk of dough between 2 large sheets of parchment paper or plastic wrap to 12-inch circle, about 1/8 inch thick. Refrigerate, leaving dough between parchment sheets, until firm, about 30 minutes.
  • Set large colander over now-empty bowl; transfer cooled apples to colander. Shake colander to drain off as much juice as possible (cooked apples should measure about 8 cups); discard juice. Transfer apples to dough-lined pie plate; sprinkle with lemon juice.
  • Remove parchment from one side of remaining dough and flip dough onto apples; peel off second piece of parchment. Pinch edges of top and bottom dough rounds firmly together. Following illustrations 1 through 4, trim and seal edges of dough, then cut four 2-inch slits in top of dough. Brush surface with beaten egg white and sprinkle evenly with remaining teaspoon sugar.
  • Set pie on preheated baking sheet; bake until crust is dark golden brown, 45 to 55 minutes. Transfer pie to wire rack and cool at least 1 1/2 hours. Cut into wedges and serve.
  • Freezing Instructions:.
  • We tried two different methods for freezing: (1) fully assembled and ready to go directly from freezer to oven and (2) divided into separate components of crust and cooked apple filling to be thawed, assembled, and baked. Both versions were good, although the reassembled pie was deemed marginally better for its slightly flakier, more evenly browned crust. You'll probably want to choose one method or the other based on how long you expect to keep a pie (or its components) in the freezer.
  • Assembled pies kept well for up to two weeks in the freezer; after that, the texture of the crust and apples suffered. To freeze an assembled pie, follow the recipe all the way through sealing the pie crust, but do not brush with egg wash. Freeze the pie for two to three hours, then wrap it tightly in a double layer of plastic wrap, followed by a layer of foil, and return it to the freezer. To bake, remove the pie from the freezer, brush it with egg wash, sprinkle with sugar, cut slits in the top crust, and place directly on the baking sheet in the preheated oven. Bake 5 to 10 minutes longer than normal.
  • For a longer freezer storage time of several months, freeze the crust and apples separately. Freeze individual batches of the cooked, drained apple filling in quart-sized freezer bags (this doubles as a great alternative to canning). Then make the pie dough, shape it into two 4-inch disks, wrap the disks tightly in a double layer of plastic wrap and foil, and freeze. When you're ready to make the pie, simply thaw the apples and crust in the refrigerator the night before, assemble as per the recipe instructions, and bake as directed. Of course, you can always just freeze the apples and make the crust fresh the day you bake the pie.

Time 6h

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 22

3 ¾ cups all purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1 pinch kosher salt
3 sticks unsalted butter, cut into 1/2 in (1.24 cm) and frozen for 15 minutes
¾ cup water, ice water, plus more as needed
1 large egg, with 1 tablespoon water
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 lb Granny Smith applesGranny Smith apples, peeled and sliced into ¼-inch (6 mm) wedges
3 lb honeycrisp apple, peeled and sliced into ¼-inch (6 mm) wedges
1 lemon
1 ½ cups brown sugar
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice
1 ½ teaspoons vanilla bean paste
¼ cup cornstarch
3 tablespoons water
1 cup apple cider
1 ½ cups granulated sugar
⅓ cup water
1 tablespoon light corn syrup
¾ cup heavy cream, room temperature
½ teaspoon kosher salt
pecan, candied chopped, for garnish

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!

DEEP-DISH APPLE PIE



Deep-Dish Apple Pie image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     dessert

Time 4h15m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
12 tablespoons (1 1/2 sticks) cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
1/3 cup cold vegetable shortening
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons cold vodka
4 pounds mixed apples (such as Rome, Gala and McIntosh)
2/3 cup sugar, plus more for sprinkling
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons heavy cream, plus more for brushing
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon or apple pie spice
1/4 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Make the crust: Pulse the flour, 4 tablespoons butter, the shortening, sugar and salt in a food processor until it looks like fine meal. Add the remaining 8 tablespoons butter and pulse until it is in pea-size pieces. Drizzle in the vodka and 3 tablespoons cold water and pulse until the dough just comes together. Divide the dough between 2 sheets of plastic wrap; use the plastic to help form each half into a disk. Wrap tightly and refrigerate until firm, at least 1 hour or overnight. (The dough can be frozen for up to 2 months; thaw at room temperature.)
  • Make the filling: Peel the apples and slice 1/2 inch thick. Transfer to a bowl and toss with the sugar and lemon juice. Melt 4 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the apples and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 15 to 18 minutes. Add the flour, heavy cream, cinnamon and salt and stir until the juices thicken, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool completely. (The filling can be made up to 2 days ahead; cover and refrigerate.)
  • Roll out 1 disk of dough into a 13-inch round on a floured surface. Ease into a 9 1/2-inch deep-dish pie plate. Add the filling, mounding it in the center; dot with the remaining 2 tablespoons butter.
  • Roll out the remaining disk of dough into a 12-inch round on a floured surface. Lay the dough over the filling and press the edges together. Fold the overhanging dough under itself and crimp the edge with your fingers. Brush with heavy cream and sprinkle with sugar. Cut a few slits in the top crust to let steam escape. Chill at least 1 hour.
  • Set a baking sheet on a rack in the lower third of the oven; preheat to 425 degrees F. Set the pie on the hot baking sheet and reduce the oven temperature to 375 degrees F; bake until golden, 1 hour to 1 hour 10 minutes, rotating the pie as needed for even browning. (Cover the edge with foil if it is browning too quickly.) Transfer to a rack and let cool until set, about 3 hours.

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 24

Dough:
3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 1/2 cups (3 sticks) chilled unsalted butter, cut into pieces
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
Filling and assembly:
4 pounds Pink Lady apples, peeled, cored, thinly sliced
1/3 cup (packed) dark brown sugar
1/4 cup granulated sugar
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom
All-purpose flour (for surface)
1 1/2 cups unfiltered apple cider
1 vanilla bean, split lengthwise
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 large egg
2 tablespoons chilled unsalted butter, cut into pieces
Demerara sugar (for sprinkling)
Special Equipment
A 9-inch deep pie dish

Steps:

  • Pulse flour, sugar, and salt in food processor to combine. Add butter and process until largest pieces of butter are pea-size. Transfer to a large bowl.
  • Combine vinegar and 1/2 cup ice water in a small bowl and drizzle over flour mixture, mixing with a fork to combine. Mix until shaggy pieces form, then knead in bowl a couple of times with your hands to bring together into a shaggy dough (it will look quite dry). Transfer large clumps of dough to work surface, drizzle 1 Tbsp. ice water over remaining flour mixture in bowl and knead again to bring it together. Add to dough on work surface. Working with half of the dough, press into a single mass, incorporating dry bits, then pat down to make a 3/4"-thick square. Using a bench scraper or knife, divide dough into 4 pieces. Stack pieces on top of one another, placing any unincorporated dry bits in between layers, and press down to combine. Form dough into a 3/4"-thick disk and wrap tightly in plastic. Repeat with remaining dough. Chill at least 2 hours.
  • Toss apples with brown sugar, granulated sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, salt, allspice, and cardamom in a large bowl to coat. Let apples sit until they start to release their juices, at least 1 hour and up to 3 hours.
  • Let dough sit at room temperature 5 minutes to soften. Working one at a time, roll out disks of dough on a lightly floured surface 1/8" thick. Place each on a parchment-lined baking sheet and chill while you prepare the filling.
  • Preheat oven to 375°F. Place apple cider in a medium saucepan and scrape in seeds from vanilla bean; add pod. Bring to a boil and cook, whisking occasionally, until reduced by two-thirds. Pour off juices that have accumulated in bowl of apples and add to apple cider. Return to a boil and cook until reduced to about 1/2 cup; remove vanilla pod. Stir cornstarch into 3 Tbsp. water in a small bowl to dissolve, then whisk into apple cider. Cook, whisking constantly, until cider mixture is very thick and bubbling, about 1 minute. Let cool slightly, then scrape over apples; toss to coat.
  • Carefully transfer dough round to pie dish. Lift up edges and allow dough to slump down into dish (if too cold to be pliable, let it warm up slightly first). Trim, leaving about 1" overhang. Beat egg with 1 tsp. water in a small bowl and brush over edges of dough. Scrape in apple filling, creating a mound in the center; dot filling with butter. Place remaining dough round over filling. Trim edges of top round, leaving a 1/2" overhang. Fold edge of bottom round up and over; press together to seal. Crimp edge and brush top with remaining egg wash. Sprinkle with demerara sugar and cut a few vents in top. Place pie on a foil-lined rimmed baking sheet and chill in freezer 10 minutes.
  • Bake pie until crust is deep golden brown and juices are thick and bubbling, 1 1/2-2 hours (yes: 2 hours!). Transfer pie to a wire rack and let cool at least 4 hours before serving.
  • Do Ahead
  • Dough can be made 5 days ahead. Keep chilled, or freeze up to 1 month. Pie can be made 1 day ahead. Let cool; store covered with foil at room temperature.

Provided by Stacey Granger

Time 55m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 10

12 cups peeled and sliced apples
2 cups white sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground ginger

1/4 cup all purpose flour
1 1/4 cups sugar
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons water
3 tablespoons unsalted butter

Steps:

  • Make crust:
  • Mix 1 1/2 cups flour, 2 tablespoons sugar and 1/4 teaspoon salt in processor. Add butter and cut in using on/off turns until mixture resembles coarse meal.

Cover and refrigerate streusel. Keep dough chilled. Let dough soften slightly at room temperature before rolling out.)
  • Make filling:
  • Combine apple wedges and 1/4 cup flour in large bowl and toss to coat. Let stand while preparing caramel.
  • Stir sugar and 1/4 cup water in heavy large saucepan over medium heat until sugar dissolves. Increase heat and boil until syrup turns deep amber color, brushing pan sides with wet pastry brush and swirling pan occasionally, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat. Add butter and remaining 2 tablespoons water (mixture will bubble vigorously). Return to heat and stir until smooth. Pour caramel over apples; toss to coat. Let stand until apples release juices, tossing occasionally, about 10 minutes.
  • Position rack in bottom third of oven and preheat to 375°F. Roll out dough on floured work surface to 14-inch round. Transfer to 9 1/2-inch-diameter glass pie dish with 1 3/4-inch-high sides. Crimp edges decoratively. Spoon apple mixture into prepared crust. Sprinkle streusel over pie.

DEEP-DISH VEGAN APPLE PIE



Deep-Dish Vegan Apple Pie image

Extra-virgin coconut oil is a great substitute for butter in both the pie dough and the apple filling to make this all-American fruit pie vegan-friendly. We use a mix of apples for the filling: The Golden Delicious keep their shape and are a nice contrast to the soft McIntoshes, and the Granny Smiths give a nice tartness.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     dessert

Time 8h15m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for rolling
2 tablespoons vegan granulated sugar
2 tablespoons white vinegar
Fine salt
1 cup unrefined virgin or extra-virgin coconut oil
8 to 10 tablespoons ice water
4 pounds mixed apples (8 or 9), such as Golden Delicious, Granny Smith and McIntosh
2/3 cup vegan granulated sugar, plus more for sprinkling
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
4 tablespoons unrefined virgin or extra-virgin coconut oil
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon or apple-pie spice
1/4 teaspoon fine salt
2 tablespoons unsweetened almond or soy milk

Steps:

  • Special equipment: a 9 1/2-inch deep-dish pie pan
  • For the dough: Put the flour, sugar, vinegar and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a food processor, and pulse to combine. Add the coconut oil in small spoonfuls, and pulse until the largest pieces are pea-size. Add 8 tablespoons ice water, and pulse until evenly combined. Squeeze a handful of the dough together; it should just hold its shape. If the mixture is very powdery, pulse in an additional 1 to 2 tablespoons ice water. Divide the dough between 2 large pieces of plastic wrap, pat each into a 1/2-inch thick discs and chill for at least 1 hour up to overnight.
  • For the filling: Meanwhile, peel and core the apples; cut into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Toss with the sugar and lemon juice in a large bowl. Melt the coconut oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the apples and cook, stirring occasionally, until the firmer apples soften but hold their shape, about 12 minutes. Add the flour, cinnamon and 1/4 teaspoon salt, and stir to combine. Remove from the heat, and let cool completely. (The filling can be made up to 2 days ahead; cover and refrigerate.)
  • To assemble: To make rolling easier, let the dough soften a bitit should be slightly soft when pressedat room temperature (this may take anywhere from 20 to 40 minutes depending on the temperature of your kitchen). Roll 1 disc of dough out into a 13-inch round on a lightly floured surface or between two pieces of floured parchment or wax paper. If the dough gets too warm, refrigerate it to firm it up. Ease the crust into a 9 1/2-inch deep-dish pie pan. Add the cooled filling, mounding it slightly in the center.
  • Roll out the remaining dough disc into a 12-inch round; place it over the filling, and press the 2 crusts together around the edges. Fold the overhanging dough under itself, and crimp as desired. Brush the top and edges with the almond milk, and sprinkle generously with sugar. Pierce the top with a knife (or make decorative cutouts) a few times to let steam escape. Chill for at least 1 hour.
  • Position an oven rack in the lowest position in the oven, place a baking sheet on the rack and preheat to 425 degrees F; preheat for at least 30 minutes. Place the pie on the hot baking sheet, and lower the oven to 375 degrees F. Bake until the pie is golden and the filling is bubbly, 1 hour to 1 hour 20 minutes, rotating as needed. (Cover the edges with foil if they brown too quickly.) Transfer to a rack, and cool until set, about 3 hours.

DEEP DISH APPLE PIE



Deep Dish Apple Pie image

This recipe is from my grandma, though it's not really a pie as there's no crust. It works well to cut the sugar and sugar/flour/butter mixtures in half, but I'm putting the recipe here mostly as it came to me. The recipe says to fill half the pan with apples, then sprinkle with cinnamon, then fill the other half with apples, sprinkle with cinnamon again, then top, so I'm estimating the cinnamon but I counted the apples I used when I made it last. I prefer to use brown sugar.

Provided by heavenslice

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h45m

Yield 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

12 apples, peeled and sliced
1 teaspoon cinnamon, divided
1 1/2 cups sugar or 1 1/2 cups brown sugar, divided
1 cup flour
1/2 cup butter (1 stick)

Steps:

  • Fill 9x13 pan half full with peeled and sliced apples, sprinkle with cinnamon and 1/2 cup sugar.
  • Finish filling pan with peeled and sliced apples, sprinkle again with cinnamon.
  • Combine remaining 1 cup sugar, flour and butter (I use a pastry blender).
  • Bake in 350 degree oven for 1 hour, temperature may be lower if using brown sugar.

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 Braeburn.
  • Peel and core your apples: This is a necessary step to ensure that your pie filling is smooth and creamy.
  • Use a sharp knife: This will help you to easily peel and core your apples.
  • Don't overcook your apples: You want them to be soft, but not mushy.
  • Use a deep-dish pie plate: This will ensure that you have enough room for all of your filling.
  • Preheat your oven: This is important to ensure that your pie crust cooks evenly.
  • Brush the edges of your pie crust with milk: This will help to brown the crust and give it a golden color.
  • Serve your pie warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream: This is the perfect way to enjoy this classic dessert.
