Doublecrust Apple Pie
- 1 x sour cream dough for a 2 crust pie
- 3 pounds apples tart, firm
- 3 tablespoons butter, unsalted
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 23 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon ground
- 1 each eggs well beaten, with a pinch of salt
- 1 teaspoon sugar for finishing the top of pie
- Peel, halve and core the apples.
- Cut each half into 5 or 6 wedges.
- Melt the butter in a wide, shallow, slopingsided pan over medium heat.
- When the butter begins to sizzle, add the sliced apples and cook, tossing or gently stirring, until they begin to sizzle about a minute.
- Add the lemon juice and sugar and continue to toss or gently stir often until the apples are tender, but still fairly firm about 5 minutes longer.
- If the appleshave exuded a large quantity of juice, they will reabsorb it as they cool.
- Pour the filling out into a nonreactive pan, or a pan lined with plastic wrap, on which the apple slices will fit in a single layer.
- Sprinkle with the cinnamon and let cool.
- Set a rack at the upper and lower thirds of the oven and preheat to 400F (200C).
- Roll out the bottom crust and arrange in pan.
- Pour the cooled filling into the bottom crust.
- Roll out the top crust for double crust pie.
- Cut several slashes in the top crust and carefully brush with egg wash.
- Be careful not to leave puddles of liquid on the crust.
- If you wish, sprinkle the top crust with sugar.
- Place the pie in the oven on the lower rack and lower the temperature to 375F (190C).
- Bake the pie for about 40 minutes, until the crust is baked through and a deep golden brown and the filling is gently bubbling.
- If the top crust has not colored sufficiently after 30 minutes, move the pie to the upper rack of the oven for the last 10 minutes.
- Cool the pie on a rack.
