Categories     dessert

Time 2h15m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 1/2 pounds short crust pastry, recipe follows
7 cups Royal Gala apples, cored and quartered (about 5 apples)
1/2 cup sugar
1 tablespoon lemon juice
2 teaspoons lemon zest, finely chopped
1/4 teaspoon grated nutmeg
Pinch salt
1 egg yolk
2 tablespoons water
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cold
3 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 ounces unsalted butter, cold
8 ounces shortening, cold
1/2 cup ice cold water

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Roll 1/2 the short crust pastry to 1/4-inch thickness and cut out a 14-inch circle. Line a 9-inch pie plate with the pastry, trim away the excess and crimp the edge.
  • Roll out the rest of the pastry to 1/4-inch thickness. Cut the pastry into 1/2-inch strips. On a piece of parchment paper or waxed paper weave the strips of pastry into a lattice that will cover the top of a 9-inch pie plate with 1-inch of overhang. Refrigerate the pie shell and lattice for at least 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, cut the apple quarters into 1/4-inch thick slices. Toss the apples with the sugar, lemon juice, lemon zest, nutmeg, and salt. Whisk together the egg yolk and water to make an egg wash. Brush the inside edge of the pastry with the egg wash. Arrange the apples in the pie shell and dab the top with pieces of cold butter. Slide the lattice top over the apples. Press the pastry of the lattice firmly on the crimped edge to seal the 2 together. Brush the lattice with egg wash. Place the pie on a baking sheet and bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes.
  • Sift the flour and salt into a large mixing bowl. Using a cheese grater, grate the butter and shortening into the flour. Combine the mixture with your fingers until it resembles cornmeal. Add the ice cold water and mix with a spoon, pulling the water into the flour until a dough forms.
  • With your hands, shape the dough into 2 balls and flatten them into disks. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. Store in the refrigerator for up to 4 days and in the freezer for up to 1 month.

Tips:

  • Choose the right apples: Use a variety of apples that will hold their shape when cooked, such as Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, or Braeburn.
  • Peel and core the apples thinly: This will help the apples cook evenly and prevent the jam from becoming too thick.
  • Use fresh lemon juice: This will help to brighten the flavor of the jam and prevent it from becoming too sweet.
  • Cook the jam over medium heat: This will help to prevent the jam from scorching and will allow the flavors to develop fully.
  • Stir the jam frequently: This will help to prevent the jam from sticking to the bottom of the pot and will also help to distribute the heat evenly.
  • Test the jam for doneness: The jam is done when it reaches a temperature of 220°F (105°C) or when a dollop of jam placed on a cold plate wrinkles when you push your finger through it.
  • Let the jam cool completely before serving: This will allow the jam to thicken and develop its full flavor.

Conclusion:

Grandma's Apple Pie Jam is a delicious and versatile spread that can be used on toast, biscuits, or pancakes. It can also be used as a filling for pies, tarts, and other desserts. With its sweet and tart flavor, this jam is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
