Ingredients
  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, chilled and diced
  • 6 to 8 tablespoons ice water
  • 6 cups peeled, cored, and sliced apples (Granny Smith and Honeycrisp recommended)
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour (for thickening)
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
  • 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
Instructions
  1. 1In a large bowl, combine the flour, salt, and sugar for the crust.
  2. 2Add the chilled butter and mix until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  3. 3Stir in the ice water a tablespoon at a time until mixture forms a ball. Divide dough in half, shape into disks, wrap in plastic, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
  4. 4Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
  5. 5Roll out one disk of dough on a floured surface to fit a 9-inch pie pan. Place the rolled dough in the pie pan, trimming excess dough.
  6. 6In another bowl, mix together the sliced apples, brown sugar, granulated sugar, lemon juice, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, and flour. Pour the apple mixture into the pie crust and dot with butter.
  7. 7Roll out the second dough disk and place over the filling. Cut slits to allow steam to escape and crimp the edges to seal. Brush the top with the beaten egg.
  8. 8Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Reduce the temperature to 350°F (175°C) and continue baking for 35 to 45 minutes, or until the apples are soft and the crust is golden brown.
  9. 9Remove from the oven and let cool on a wire rack for at least 2 hours before serving.
