Yield Makes 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

Streusel:
2/3 cup walnuts
1/2 cup (packed) golden brown sugar
1/4 cup yellow cornmeal
1/4 cup all purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
5 tablespoons chilled unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
Filling:
2 1/4 pounds Granny Smith apples (about 6 medium), peeled, quartered, cored, cut into 1/2-inch-thick wedges
1/2 cup sour cream
1/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons all purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
3/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1 Flaky Pie Crust
Vanilla ice cream

Steps:

  • For streusel:
  • Combine nuts, brown sugar, cornmeal, flour, cinnamon and nutmeg in processor. Using on/off turns, process until nuts are finely chopped. Add butter and process until small moist clumps form. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)
  • For filling:
  • Position rack in center of oven and preheat to 375°F. Toss apples with sour cream in large bowl to coat. Mix sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves in small bowl. Sprinkle mixture over apples and toss to coat.
  • Transfer filling to prepared crust. Sprinkle streusel over apples, covering completely. Bake pie until apples are tender and streusel is golden, tenting pie with foil if streusel browns too quickly, about 1 hour. Transfer pie to rack and cool slightly.
  • Serve pie slightly warm or at room temperature with vanilla ice cream.

1/4 cup yellow cornmeal

3/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, chilled, cut into small pieces
2 1/4 lbs granny smith apples, peeled, quartered, cored, cut into 1/2-inch-thick wedges (about 6 medium)
1/2 cup sour cream
1/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
3/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1 prepared pie crust

Tips:

  • Use a variety of apples for a more complex flavor. Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Braeburn are all good choices.
  • Peel and slice the apples thinly so that they cook evenly.
  • Toss the apples with lemon juice to prevent them from browning.
  • Use a combination of butter and shortening in the streusel topping for a richer flavor.
  • Sprinkle the streusel topping evenly over the apples before baking.
  • Bake the pie until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
  • Let the pie cool for at least 30 minutes before serving.
