Kick Butt Apple Pie Recipes

KICK BUTT APPLE PIE

Steps:

• To make the dough, you'll want to add your flour and salt to a bowl. Now cut up your butter into small squares and add it into the flour, a few squares at a time, using either a fork or a pastry blender.
• Add in the water and mix it up to form a dough.
• Stick the dough in the fridge to chill and let's start working on the filling.
• Grab up your brown sugar, butter, maple syrup, salt, vanilla, almond extract, flour, cream, cinnamon, and nutmeg and dump them into a small pot.
• Turn your heat to medium and let the mixture cook up. When it reaches boiling, remove it from the heat and set aside.
• Pull your dough back out and cut it into two equal pieces. Roll the first piece out to fit your pie pan and lay it inside.
• Cut off the excess and crimp your crust all pretty like.
• Now add in your apples.
• Now it's time to roll out your second piece of dough. Roll it out to the size of your pie top. Grab a pizza cutter and cut about 14-16 1/2" strips from the dough.
• Lattice up your pie.
• The last step is to take your sauce and carefully pour it over the top of the pie.
• Now pop your pie in the oven at 375 for 40 minutes. You might want to put another pan under your pie as well to catch any drippings.
