Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 1 Pie crust
  • 2 lbs apples- I use a mix of Granny smith, Fuji and Gala peeled and cored, about 6-7 apples
  • 113 g unsalted butter
  • 3 tbsp flour
  • 1 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 tsp clove
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 220 g brown sugar
  • 1 recipe for crumb topping for pie

Instructions
 

For the Sauce

  • Measure out your sauce ingredients ahead of time to ensure adding easily.
  • In a small sauce pan, melt the butter over medium heat.
    113 g unsalted butter
  • Once the butter has melted, add in the flour, cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves. Whisking constantly, stir for 1 minute.
    3 tbsp flour
    1 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
    1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
    1/4 tsp clove
  • Add in the water and brown sugar to the flour mixture. Whisk to bring everything together. Let mixture come to a boil, while gently whisking. Reduce heat to medium low (low if your stove top cooks hot) and cook for 3 minutes, whisking gently.
    1/4 cup water
    220 g brown sugar
  • Remove mixture from heat and set to the side to cool a little.

For the Pie

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
  • Peel, core and slice your apples and place them in a large bowl.

    • Using an apple peeler and corer makes this process so quick!
  • Place your prepared pie crust on a baking sheet to reduce the risk of any sauce falling onto the bottom of your oven.

  • One your apples are sliced, immediately pour your sauce mixture over top of the apples, stirring to coat completely.
  • Place your apples into your prepared pie crust and immediately place into the oven.
    • If you haven't yet, prep your crumb topping now!
  • Bake at 425 for 15 minutes. After 15 minutes, reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees and bake for another 15 minutes.
  • At this point, pull your pie out of the oven and top it with the crumb topping. Rotate the pie and put it back in the oven for 30 minutes.

  • Pull pie out of the oven and allow it to cool completely before slicing into it. If cut into before cooling, it will likely appear soupy. Once it cools, it should set up wonderfully, giving you a decadent pie with an amazing saucy filling.
