Crunch Top Apple Pie Recipe courtesy Paula Deen, 2007
Paula's Perfect Pie Crust, recipe follows
3/4 cup sugar
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Dash salt
3 1/2 cups peeled, chopped cooking apples
1 (16-ounce) jar applesauce
1 tablespoon lemon juice
2 tablespoons butter, chopped into small pieces
Crunch Topping:
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon sugar
Dash salt
1 tablespoon butter, at room temperature
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
Line a 9-inch pie pan with half of dough. Combine the sugar, flour, cinnamon, and salt in a bowl. Stir in the apples, applesauce, and lemon juice. Spoon the apple mixture into pie pan and dot with butter. Cut remaining crust into strips; arrange in a lattice design over top of pie.
For crunch topping:
Combine the flour, sugar and salt in a bowl. Using a fork, cut in butter until mixture is crumbly. Sprinkle over top of crust. Bake for 10 minutes, then reduce heat to 350 degrees F and continue to bake for about 45 minutes, or until crust and topping are golden brown.
Paula's Perfect Pie Crust:
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon fine salt
3 tablespoons granulated white sugar
1/4 cup vegetable shortening, cold
12 tablespoons butter, (1 1/2 sticks) cold and cubed
1/4 cup to 1⁄2 cup ice water
In a large mixing bowl, sift together the flour, salt and sugar. Add the shortening and break it up with your hands as you start to coat it all up with the flour. Add the cold butter cubes and work it into the flour with your hands or a pastry cutter. Work it quickly, so the
butter doesn't get too soft, until the mixture is crumbly, like very coarse cornmeal. Add the ice water, a little at a time, until the mixture comes together forming a dough. Bring the dough together into a ball. When it comes together stop working it otherwise the dough will get over-worked and tough. Divide the dough in half and flatten it slightly to form a disk shape. Wrap each disk in plastic and chill in the fridge for at least 2 hours. On a floured surface roll each disk out into a 10 to 11-inch circle to make a 9-inch pie.Apple pie recipe?
for the pie crust you are going to need the following:
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon sugar
6 tablespoons butter
6 tablespoons shortening
6 to 8 tablespoons ice water
1 Mixing Bowl
Rolling pin
Knife
Measuring spoons
Measuring Cups
Dough Blender (in picture, I know, it sounds electric, but it isn't)
Cutting Board
9 inch Pie Pan (smaller is ok, but no bigger)
Step 1: MAKING THE CRUST
Warm the butter in the microwave until it is soft, but not melted. Mix in a large bowl the following; 2 cups flour, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 tablespoon sugar. Then cut in using the dough blender, use 6 tablespoons butter, 6 tablespoons shortening, 6-8 tablespoons ice water. Then chill the dough for 20+ minutes in the refrigerator wrapped in plastic.
For the filling you will need:
5 Tart Peeled Apples
1 Cup Sugar
2 Tablespoons Flour
1/2 Teaspoon Cinnamon
1/4 Teaspoon Salt
1 Tablespoon Vinegar
1 Tablespoon Lemon Juice
Step 2: MAKING THE FILLING
Peel and slice your apples, then soak them in water while you mix the filling. You will need:
1 cup sugar
2 tablespoons flour
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon vinegar
Mix the filling, and once it is mixed, then mix in the apples.
Step 3:
Take out your dough and shape your pie, when you are done then put the apples into it, then cover it. You can either make wholes on the top of the pie, or make it using strips (this helps stop any overflowing), or you can just cover the whole thing.
Step 4: Bakking the Pie
Cut long strips of tinfoil and place them around the edges of the pie, this stops the crust's edge from burning while it bakes. You should take the tinfoil off about ten minutes before the pie is done so that it will have a golden brown edge. You should bake the pie at 400 degrees for 50-60 minutes.
Good Luck, I hope you enjoy it.
this is the easiest and best receipe i have ever had...
crust:
3 c flour
1 c lard
beat in 5 tbs water
1 tsp vinegar
1 egg
separate into 3 balls
filling:
The best apples for a perfect pie are granny smith
Peel apples, quarter them, take out cores, and slice them as paper thin as you can. If apples are dry, sprinkle with a little water. mix together 3/4 to 1 cup of sugar, 1 tsp. cinnamon or nutmeg (what I do is put about 1 tsp of cinnamon and ½ tsp or a little more of nutmeg); Mix lightly through:
4 sliced apples; Heap up in pastry-lined pan. Dot with:1 1/2 tbsp. butter ; Cover with top crust. Bake until crust is nicely browned and apples are cooked through. Serve warm or cold...may be topped with cream, whipped cream, or ice cream.
Temperature: 425 degrees (hot oven)
Time: Bake 50 min. check after 45 minutes…
It makes a perfect pie every time...good luck
