Heirloom Apple Pie
- 10 cups Heirloom Apples, Sliced, Skin On And Cores Removed
- 1/4 cups Flour (Riper Apples Will Use A Bit More Flour. If Your Apples Are "Green" Use Less)
- 3/4 cups Sugar (Less If The Apples Are Very Sweet. Mine Were Not)
- 1/2 teaspoons Cinnamon
- 1/8 teaspoons Nutmeg
- 1/8 teaspoons Cloves
- 1 Tablespoon Cider Vinegar Or Lemon Juice
- 1 whole Recipe Double Crust Pie Dough (or A Store Bought 2-crust Package)
- 1 whole Egg White Mixed With A Sprinkle Of Water (If You Don't Have Eggs You Can Use Milk Or Cream)
- 1. Combine all of the ingredients, except for the crust and egg white, in a large bowl. Mix well with a spoon until the apples are well coated, digging deep to get all of the loose bits at the bottom.
- 2. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Roll out one half of the pie crust and place in a 9" pie dish. Pour the apples in. Brush the rim of the pie dough with a bit of water to help the top and bottom crust seal together.
- 3. Roll out the second half of the crust and lay on top of your pie. Trim the edges and crimp them with a fork, or give them a ridged look with your fingers.
- 4. Paint the top with egg wash (1 egg mixed with a sprinkle of water) and cut vent holes on the top crust with a knife. Sprinkle a little extra sugar on top if you'd like.
- 5. Cook in the oven at 425 degrees F for 20 minutes, then reduce the heat to 375 degrees F and cook for 45 - 55 minutes more.
- Makes one 9-inch apple pie. Serves 8-10.
