Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 Granny Smith apples (about 9 cups sliced)
  • ½ cup sugar
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • ¼ cup butter
  • 2 ½ cups flour
  • ¼ cup brown sugar
  • ¼ cup heavy cream
  • 1 egg
  • ¼ tsp nutmeg
  • ¼ tsp allspice
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • juice of ½ lemon
  • 1 cup cold butter (diced)
  • ½ cup ice water
  • 3 egg yolks
  • ⅓ cup sugar
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • pinch salt
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, wash and slice the Granny Smith apples. Toss them with lemon juice, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, and salt until evenly coated.
  3. In another bowl, mix flour and salt. Cut in diced cold butter until crumbly. Gradually add ice water until dough forms. Divide into two balls; flatten into disks and chill for at least 30 minutes.
  4. On a floured surface, roll out one disk into a circle about 12 inches wide. Place it in the pie dish and trim excess dough hanging over the edges.
  5. Spoon the apple mixture into the prepared crust.
  6. In a saucepan over medium heat, melt butter and brown sugar together until smooth. Stir in heavy cream and cornstarch until thickened. Pour over the apple filling evenly.
  7. Roll out the second disk of dough and place it on top of the filling. Seal edges by crimping with fingers or a fork. Cut slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.
  8. Bake for about 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
  9. In another saucepan, whisk together milk, egg yolks, sugar, cornstarch, salt, and vanilla extract over medium heat until thickened. Remove from heat and stir in butter.
  10. Let the pie cool slightly before slicing. Drizzle warm custard over individual pieces before serving.
