My Signature Apple Pie
- 1 all of it Apple Filling
- 3 sheets Frozen puff pastry
- 1 Egg yolk
- 1 tbsp Water
- Leave the frozen puff pastry out at room temperature for 15 minutes.
- Make the crusts the size you want by pulling and stretching with your fingers and connecting them together.
- I use a tart mold to make this.
- Cut the pastry from Step 1 to the size you want and place it in the mold.
- Using the leftover pastry from Step 2, place a strip around the outside edge, about 1 cm wide.
- If one strip isn't enough, add some pastry and connect the ends.
- Attention: If you're using a pie dish, Step 3 can be omitted.
- After Step 2, go on to Step 5.
- Fill the center of the pie crust with a thick, heaping amount of completely cooled filling.
- Cut the other puff pastry into 1cm strips and arrange a lattice on the pie.
- I lined up all of the vertical strips first, and then did the horizontal strips in an over, under, over...order
- Cut off the uneven edges.
- Don't cut them too short!
- To hide the cut edges from Step 7, wrap another 1 cm strip of puff pastry around the outside to cover.
- Push lightly from the top to adhere the pieces.
- Mix together the ingredients and spread over the entire pie.
- Chill in the refrigerator for 15 minutes.
- Once the pie has completely cooled, bake according to the frozen puff pastry directions and it's done!
- Note: To gauge if the pie is finished baking, check if it has puffed and expanded.
- If it hasn't, increase the baking time.
- For those with no mold, or who want to make an even cuter pie, use this recipe: "Heart-Shaped Apple Pie".
- In Step 5, add custard to the mixture.
- It's delicious.
- I recommend using this custard: "Seriously Delicious Custard Cream Made in the Microwave".
- Wait until it's cooled before adding it to your pie.
