APPLE SLAB PIE

Categories     dessert

Time 3h15m

Yield 14 to 16 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

Nonstick cooking spray, for spraying the pan
Pinch of salt
4 1/3 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for flouring
1/2 cup plus 1 teaspoon sugar
1 3/4 cups (3 1/2 sticks) cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
3/4 cup ice water
1 pound Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored and cut into thin slices
1 pound Fuji apples, peeled, cored and cut into thin slices
1 pound Honeycrisp apples, peeled, cored and cut into thin slices
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 large egg, whisked, for the egg wash
Vanilla ice cream, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 15-by-10-by-1-inch pan with nonstick cooking spray and set aside.
  • In a large bowl, mix the salt, 4 cups of the flour and 1 teaspoon of the sugar. Using a pastry blender, cut in the butter until the mixture looks like coarse crumbs. Add 1 tablespoon of the water at a time to moisten it and mix, repeating until a dough starts to form. Knead the dough into a ball. Divide the dough in half and flatten each half into a rectangle. Wrap with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
  • Lightly flour a work surface and roll 1 piece of dough into a 19-by-13-inch rectangle. Place the dough on the prepared pan and ease it onto the pan and up the sides, making sure not to stretch the dough too much so it doesn't become too thin. Trim the leftover dough, leaving just enough to cover the sides of the pan. Fold the dough as desired on the edges.
  • In a large bowl, combine the apple slices, cinnamon and remaining 1/3 cup flour and 1/2 cup sugar. Toss until the apples are coated. Arrange the apple mixture evenly on the dough.
  • On a lightly floured surface, roll the remaining piece of dough into a rectangle. With leaf-shaped cookie cutters, cut out dough leaves. Arrange the leaves on top of the apple mixture to cover the pie; it is okay to leave some space in between the leaves so you can see the apple filling. Brush the egg wash on top of the leaves.
  • Bake until the apples are cooked through and the top crust is evenly golden brown, 40 to 45 minutes. Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and enjoy!

Yield 12 slices

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 cups Flour
1 cup (225 gm) Shortening
1 teaspoon Salt
8-10 Tablespoons Water
1 1/2 teaspoon Water
4 pounds Apples, peeled & pared
1 cup Sugar
3/4 teaspoon Cinnamon
3/4 teaspoon Nutmeg
3 Tablespoons (heaping) Flour
1/4 stick Butter
2 Tablespoons Powdered Sugar
Hot Water

To Apples, add Sugar, remaining Flour and Cinnamon & Nutmeg to taste. Dot with Butter. 5. Bake at 450-degrees for 30-35 minutes. 6. Glaze while hot with mixture of Powdered Sugar and Hot Water.

Tips:

  • Use a quality Granny Smith apple: This tart apple holds its shape well and provides a nice contrast to the sweet cake batter.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can result in a tough cake. Mix only until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use a 9x13 inch baking pan: This is the perfect size pan for this cake. A smaller pan will result in a thicker cake, while a larger pan will result in a thinner cake.
  • Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This usually takes about 45-50 minutes.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting: This will help the frosting to set properly.
