Ingredients
  

Baking & Spices
  • 1 Homemade pie crust (2 disks)
  • 1 1/2 tsp Cinnamon
  • 3 tbsp All Purpose Flour
  • 1 cup Granulated Sugar
Produce
  • 6 Granny Smith Apples Peeled & Cored,(thinly sliced)
Refrigerated
  • 8 tbsp Unsalted Butter
Egg Wash
  • 1 Egg
  • 1 tbsp Water
Other
  • 1/4 cup Water

Method
 

  1. Melt butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in 3 Tbsp flour then simmer for 1 minute, whisking constantly. Whisk in 1/4 cup water, 1 cup sugar and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and continue simmering 3 minutes, whisking frequently then remove from heat.
  2. Peel, remove cores and thinly slice 6 apples and place them in a large bowl. Sprinkle the top with 1 1/2 tsp cinnamon and toss to combine. Pour the sauce over the apples and stir to coat the apple slices.
  3. Sprinkle a surface with flour and roll out bottom pie crust to a 12" diameter circle. Wrap it around your rolling pin to transfer it to the 9" pie dish. Add apple mixture, mounding slightly in the center and being careful not to get the filling on the edges which would make it difficult to seal.
  4. Roll second crust into an 11" round and cut into 10 even thickness strips using a pizza cutter. Arrange strips in a woven lattice pattern over the top (see video tutorial). Beat together 1 egg and 1 tbsp water and brush the top with egg mixture.
  5. Bake at 425˚F for 15 minutes. Reduce the heat to 350˚F and continue baking another 45 minutes or until apples are soft and filling is bubbling through the vents. Let cool for 1 hour before serving. ENJOY!
