Steps:
- Combine the sugar, cinnamon, and cardamom in a small mixing bowl.
- In skillet, melt 2 tablespoons butter over medium-high heat. Add 1/3 apples, 1/3 sugar mixture, and 1/4 teaspoon vanilla. Saute until apples are golden brown, about 4 minutes. Remove from heat, measure 2 tablespoons Calvados into cup, add to skillet; return to heat, and cook 3 minutes. Calvados may ignite; proceed with caution until alcohol burns off, about 30 seconds. Add 3 tablespoons cream; cook, stirring, until thick, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to large bowl. Repeat step in two batches with remaining apples.
- On lightly floured surface, roll out pate brisee 1/8 inch thick. Measure diameter of ovenproof bowl (we used a bowl eight inches wide and six inches deep), and roll dough out to extend sides by three inches all the way around. In center of dough, punch hole with number 4 plain pastry tip or 1/4 inch tip.
- Place apple mixture in ovenproof bowl; drape rolled-out pastry on top, centering hole. Allow edge of pastry to overhang sides of bowl. Trim edges to create a scalloped edge. Decorate top with excess dough using cold water to adhere.
- Mix egg yolk and remaining tablespoon cream; brush onto pie. Chill for 30 minutes.
- Heat oven to 400 degrees. Bake 50 to 55 minutes. When top becomes golden brown, loosely drape piece of foil over top to prevent further browning; continue to bake until pie bubbles. Cool on wire rack, 45 to 60 minutes. Serve warm, garnished with cheddar if desired.
