Ingredients
  

  • 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup cold unsalted butter cubed
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 6 –8 tablespoons ice water
  • 6 medium apples peeled and sliced
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoon nutmeg
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 3 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 egg for egg wash
  • 1 tablespoon milk

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a bowl mix flour, salt, and sugar then cut in cold butter until crumbly.
  3. Add ice water gradually and form dough then divide into two portions and chill for 30 minutes.
  4. Roll out the first dough and place it into a pie dish.
  5. In another bowl mix apples, sugars, cinnamon, nutmeg, lemon juice, cornstarch, and vanilla.
  6. Add the apple filling evenly into the pie crust.
  7. Roll the second dough and place it over the pie then seal the edges.
  8. Brush egg mixed with milk over the crust and cut small slits on top.
  9. Bake for 50–55 minutes until the crust is golden brown.
  10. Let the pie cool before slicing and serving.

Notes

Use a mix of apple varieties for better flavor and texture.
Chilling the dough helps create a flaky crust.
Let the pie cool for at least 1 hour so the filling sets properly.
Serve warm with vanilla ice cream for the best taste.
