Apple Crème Fraîche Pie Recipe

• , one half shaped and chilled in a pie plate, the other rolled out flat and chilled on a floured sheet pan
• 2/3 cup creme fraiche
• 1/3 cup sugar
• 1 egg, lightly beaten
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
• 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
• 2 tablespoons flour
• 1/4 cup old-fashioned oatmeal
• 1/4 cup light brown sugar
• 5 apples, peeled, cored and cut into 1/4 inch pieces (choose a tart variety-Braeburn, Northern Spy, Fuji are good choices)
• Egg wash: 1 egg beaten with a big pinch of salt
• Additional sugar for sprinkling

1. In a large bowl, whisk together creme fraiche, sugar, egg, salt, vanilla, cinnamon, and flour and set aside. In the bowl of a food processor, combine the oats and brown sugar and pulse until they are a sandy consistency, about 15 seconds.
2. Arrange the apples in the chilled shaped crust and pour the custard mixture over the top. Sprinkle the oatmeal mixture over the top of the custard. Remove the chilled dough sheet from the fridge and cut into 1/2 inch strips. Use the strips to weave a lattice top. Allow the pie to rest in the fridge for 30 minutes.
3. Adjust oven rack to lower position and preheat oven to 400u0b0F. When the pie has rested, brush it with egg wash, sprinkle sugar over the top. Bake for 15 minutes, then rotate the pie and turn the oven down to 350u0b0F. Bake until the filling is set in the middle and crust is golden brown, about 30 minutes longer. Cool completely before serving, at least 1 hour.
