step by step

Method

  1. Prepare the pie crust

    • Transfer to a 9-inch pie dish and trim the edge or fold the excess under.
    • Cover and refrigerate while you make the filling.
    Step 1
  2. Cook the apple filling

    • Melt the butter in a large pot over medium heat, add the apples and mix.
    • Add the granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg, mix until combined, then lower the heat to medium-low and cook until the apples soften to your liking.
    • Add the vanilla, lemon juice, flour and cornstarch and cook until the juices have reduced and thickened.
    Step 2
  3. Cool the filling

    • Remove from the heat and let it cool completely.

  4. Make the crumble

    • Add the butter and mix with a fork until crumbles form.
    • Set aside to firm up in the fridge.
    Step 4
  5. Assemble the pie

    • Preheat the oven to 375°F.
    • Take the pie crust out of the fridge, combine the egg and water and brush the egg wash on the edges of the crust.
    • Add the cooled apple filling, then sprinkle the crumble all over.
    Step 5
  6. Bake the pie

    • Place the pie on a baking sheet and cover the edges with a pie shield.
    • Bake until the filling is bubbly and the crumble is slightly golden brown.
    • Remove the pie shield and continue baking so the edges get nicely golden.
    Step 6
  7. Cool and serve

    • Allow the pie to cool so that it sets and is easier to slice.
    • Serve with ice cream and drizzle caramel sauce.
