Country Time Pine Apple Deep Dish Pie Recipes

COUNTRY TIME PINE-APPLE DEEP DISH PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
• Mix entire can of pineapple with it's juice, lemonade mix, sugar, cinnamon, flour, and melted butter. Using a bowl large enough to add sliced apples and again stirring all together.
• Place into deep dish pie plate lined with crust. Place top crust over filling slicing center heat release slots.
• Sit the prepared deep dish pie upon a cookie sheet and bake at 425 degrees for 10 minutes. Then lower oven to 350 degrees and bake an additional 40 minutes or until the pie is bubbling beneath the crust. Completely cool before slicing.
• PIE CRUST DIRECTIONS
• In medium bowl combine flour and salt. Stir in oil and water. Stir to combine. Then press crust into deep dish pie plate onto the bottom and up the sides. (I used a square 8-1/2 inch glass pyrex dish.)
• Moistened my counter and placed a strip of aluminum foil onto the dampened counter top. Lightly floured the surface and placed a large ball of the crust mixture. Rolled out the dough large enough to cover the pie. Inverted the aluminum foil over the the top of the crust dropping the top piece into place. I always have enough crust to make a single empty pie shell for whatever pie you wish.

DEEP-DISH APPLE PIE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Cut each apple quarter in thirds crosswise and combine in a bowl with the zests, juices, 1/2 cup sugar, flour, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and allspice.
• Roll out half the pie dough and drape it over a 9- or 10-inch pie pan to extend about 1/2-inch over the rim. Don't stretch the dough; if it's too small, just put it back on the board and re-roll it.
• Fill the pie with the apple mixture. Brush the edge of the bottom pie crust with the egg wash so the top crust will adhere. Top with the second crust and trim the edges to about 1-inch over the rim. Tuck the edge of the top crust under the edge of the bottom crust and crimp the 2 together with your fingers or a fork. Brush the entire top crust with the egg wash, sprinkle with 1 teaspoon sugar, and cut 4 or 5 slits.
• Place the pie on a sheet pan and bake for 1 to 1 1/4 hours, or until the crust is browned and the juices begin to bubble out. Serve warm.
• Dice the butter and return it to the refrigerator while you prepare the flour mixture. Place the flour, salt, and sugar in the bowl of a food processor fitted with a steel blade and pulse a few times to mix. Add the butter and shortening. Pulse 8 to 12 times, until the butter is the size of peas. With the machine running, pour the ice water down the feed tube and pulse the machine until the dough begins to form a ball. Dump out on a floured board and roll into a ball. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
• Cut the dough in half. Roll each piece on a well-floured board into a circle, rolling from the center to the edge, turning and flouring the dough to make sure it doesn't stick to the board. Fold the dough in half, place in a pie pan, and unfold to fit the pan. Repeat with the top crust.

COUNTRY APPLE PIE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425.
• Prepare pastry for Two Crust Pie, 10 inches (food.com recipe #442482). Place the pastry in a deep-dish 9 inch pie pan or a regular 10 inch pie pan.
• Mix all dry ingredients (sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, mace, cloves and salt) in a large bowl.
• Stir in the apples and cover completely with flour mixture. Place the apples in the pastry lined pan.
• Drizzle with 3 tablespoons of the heavy cream.
• Cover with the top crust and cut slits to vent steam. Seal the edges of the crust together and flute them.
• Brush the remaining tablespoon of cream over the top.
• Bake 40 to 45 minutes, or until crust is brown and juice begins to bubble up through slits.

BUTTERSCOTCH DEEP DISH APPLE PIE

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Combine apples, 1 cup brown sugar, water, and lemon juice in a saucepan. Cover and cook about 5 minutes or until apples are beginning to become tender. Mix flour, 1 cup white sugar, and salt. Stir into apples. Cook for about 2 more minutes until sauce thickens. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla and butter. Pour filling into pastry lined deep dish pie plate and cover with top crust. Cut 2 or 3 slits in pastry. Mix 1 tablespoon each brown sugar and white sugar. Sprinkle over pie crust. Bake 40-45 minutes. Cover with aluminum foil if crust starts to brown too much during last 15 minutes of baking.
• 2. Note: I often turn the temperature down to 375 degrees after about 15 minutes so the pie does not get too brown. With the deep dish filling the pie takes longer to bake than you might expect.
