Introduction

Apple pie is a classic dessert that everyone loves. The combination of sweet apples and flaky, buttery crust is simply irresistible. This recipe is easy to follow and will result in a delicious and impressive apple pie that will make you the star of any dinner party.

Ingredients

For the crust: - 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour - 1 tsp salt - 1 tsp sugar - 1 cup unsalted butter, cold and cut into small pieces - 1/4 to 1/2 cup ice water For the filling: - 6 cups thinly sliced peeled apples - 3/4 cup sugar - 2 tbsp all-purpose flour - 1 tsp ground cinnamon - 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg - 1/4 tsp salt - 2 tbsp unsalted butter, cut into small pieces

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F. 2. In a large bowl, mix together the flour, salt, and sugar for the crust. 3. Add the cold butter to the bowl and use a pastry cutter or your hands to work the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs. 4. Drizzle in the ice water, starting with 1/4 cup and adding more as needed, until the dough comes together in a ball. 5. Divide the dough in half and shape each half into a disk. Wrap each disk in plastic wrap and chill for at least 30 minutes. 6. In another large bowl, mix together the sliced apples, sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt for the filling. 7. Roll out one disk of dough on a floured surface until it is about 12 inches in diameter. 8. Carefully transfer the dough to a 9-inch pie dish, pressing it into the bottom and sides. 9. Pour the apple filling into the crust and dot with the small pieces of butter. 10. Roll out the second disk of dough on a floured surface until it is also about 12 inches in diameter. 11. Cut the dough into strips and weave them together over the top of the apple filling to create a lattice pattern. 12. Trim the edges of the dough and crimp them together with a fork or your fingers. 13. Brush the top of the pie with a beaten egg and sprinkle with a little sugar. 14. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. 15. Allow the pie to cool for at least 30 minutes before slicing and serving.
