Dutch Apple Pie
- FOR THE CRUST:
- 1 stick Unsalted Butter
- 1-1/4 cup Flour
- 1/2 Tablespoons Sugar
- 1/2 teaspoons Salt
- 1/4 cups Ice Cold Water
- FOR THE FILLING:
- 5 Braeburn Apples
- 2/3 cups Sugar
- 1/4 cups Flour
- 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon Nutmeg
- FOR THE TOPPING:
- 3/4 cups Flour
- 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
- 1-1/8 cup Butter, Softened
- 1 teaspoon Nutmeg
- For the crust:
- Cut butter into 1/2-inch cubes. Place into freezer for 20 minutes.
- Place flour, sugar, and salt in food processor and pulse a few times to mix. After butter has been in the freezer for 20 minutes, add to food processor and pulse 5-6 times. The goal is to mix the butter into the flour. The cubes of butter should be no smaller than peas.
- Move flour mixture to large bowl. Add water to flour 2 tablespoons at a time. Toss with fork. We want to get to the point where, if you take your hand squeeze a handful of flour, it will stick together. Work dough until it sticks together somewhat well and can be formed into a disk. We don't want the butter to fully incorporate. If you need to add more water, you can, but do so only very sparingly.
- Tightly wrap in plastic wrap and place in freezer for 20 minutes.
- For the filling:
- While freezing, peel and finely slice apples. Mix apples, sugar, flour, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
- Preheat oven to 425u0b0F.
- Take dough out of freezer and unwrap. Roll out the dough. Place pie crust on the bottom of a pie dish and add pie filling.
- Mix topping ingredients together well and spread evenly on top of pie. Trim excess dough, but the crust will shink a bit, so leave a bit. Using fork, crimp the crust. Cover with foil.
- Bake for 35 minutes. Remove tinfoil. Continue baking about 5 to 10 minutes more, checking every 5 minutes. Remove when it looks done. Let rest for at least 2 hours before serving.
