Steps:
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
- Mix sugar, cornstarch, and cinnamon together in a bowl until well blended. Add dulce de leche; stir until evenly distributed in the sugar mixture. Stir in apples until evenly coated.
- Roll out pie crusts on a lightly floured work surface. Line a 9-inch pie plate with 1 crust. Pour in apple filling, heaping it in the middle. Cover with second crust. Pinch edges together to seal. Cut several slits into the top with a sharp knife.
- Bake in the preheated oven until edges are golden, about 20 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Continue baking until apples are hot and bubbling, 25 to 30 minutes more.

DULCE DE LECHE PIE
Steps:
- For the crust: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. In a medium bowl, blend together the graham cracker crumbs and brown sugar. Drizzle in the butter and mix with a fork until the crumbs are evenly moistened. Press the mixture evenly over the bottom and about halfway up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish. Bake for 6 to 8 minutes. Let cool completely before filling.
- For the filling: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Pour the sweetened condensed milk into a shallow baking dish. Cover the pan snugly with aluminum foil. Set the shallow dish in a larger roasting pan and add hot water until it reaches halfway up the side of the baking dish. Bake until a dark caramel color, 1 to 1 1/2 hours. Check occasionally to add more water to the pan as needed. The condensed milk will turn a nice brown caramel color. Carefully remove from the oven and let cool completely.
- Whisk out any lumps until smooth and fill the prepared pie crust. Slice the bananas and arrange them on top of the dulce de leche caramel.
- Using a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment (or in a large mixing bowl using a handheld mixer), whip the cream on medium speed until it starts to thicken. Add the confectioners' sugar and beat until the cream holds nice soft peaks. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
- Grate the chocolate on top of the whipped cream just before serving.

Tips:
- Use a variety of apples. This will give your pie a more complex flavor and texture. Some good options include Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Braeburn.
- Peel and core your apples thinly. This will help them to cook evenly.
- Sauté your apples in butter and spices before adding them to the pie. This will help to caramelize the apples and give them a richer flavor.
- Use a store-bought or homemade dulce de leche. If you're using a store-bought dulce de leche, be sure to choose one that is thick and creamy.
- Don't overfill your pie crust. This will make it difficult to seal the pie and can result in a messy explosion in the oven.
- Bake your pie at a high temperature for the first 15 minutes. This will help to create a golden brown crust.
- Reduce the oven temperature after 15 minutes. This will help to prevent the pie from overcooking.
- Let your pie cool completely before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and the pie to set properly.
Conclusion:
Dulce de leche apple pie is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its sweet and tangy filling and its flaky crust, this pie is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
