Ingredients

  • 1 ¼ Cups All-Purpose Flour
  • 2 Tablespoons Sugar
  • ½ Teaspoon Salt
  • ½ Cup butter cold, cut into ½ inch cubes
  • 3-4 Tablespoons Ice Water
  • 4 Medium Apples Fuji, Honeycrisp, Granny Smith, peeled. cored. sliced
  • ½ Cup Dried Cranberries optional
  • ½ Teaspoon cinnamon
  • 2 Teaspoons lemon juice
  • ½ Teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • ½ Cup brown sugar
  • ¼ Cup Sugar
  • Teaspoon Salt
  • 2 Tablespoons Cornstarch
  • 1 Tablespoon butter cut into small pieces
  • 1 egg beaten
  • 1 Tablespoon Sparkling Sugar

Instructions

All-Butter Flaky Pie Crust

  • Add the ice water, one tablespoon at a time, over the flour mixture.
  • Pulse or stir the mixture until large clumps form.
  • When the dough begins to hold together, lay it on large piece of plastic wrap and use the wrap to for the dough into a ball. Flatten out the ball into a disc shape and cover completely with the plastic wrap.
  • Refrigerate for 30 minutes before using.

Apple Pie

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  • In a medium bowl, add all of the filling ingredients, except the butter, and stir until the apples are evenly coated. Use your spoon to roughly chop the apples.
  • Place the filling in the center of the rolled out dough, leaving a 2-3 inch border. Fold the border up and around the filling, pleating it together. Leave a circular opening in the center. Dot the filling with butter. Brush the top of the dough with the beaten egg and sprinkle with the sparkling sugar.
  • Transfer the rustic pie to a parchment lined baking sheet and bake for 40-45 minutes until the crust is a deep golden brown and the filling is bubbling. If the crust is browning too fast, tent the pie with foil for the remaining cooking time.
