How is apple pie made?
Peel, core, and slice the apples: Peel, core, and slice or roughly chop the apples into 1/4-inch to 1/2-inch slices or chunks.
Make the apple pie filling: Combine the sugar, flour, and spices (allspice, nutmeg, cinnamon) in a bowl. Add the flour mixture to the apple slices and use your hands to distribute the flour through the apples so they are well coated.
Preheat the oven to 375°F. Place one oven rack in the lowest position and put a large-rimmed baking sheet on it to catch any drippings from the pie. Position a second rack the next rung up (still in the lower third of the oven).
Roll out the dough and line the pie plate:Remove one disk of pie dough from the refrigerator. Let sit at room temperature for 5 to 10 minutes. Place the disk on a lightly floured, clean, flat surface. Using a rolling pin, roll out the pie dough to a 12-inch circle, about 1/8-inch thick.
Add the apple filling:Arrange the apple slices in the dough-lined pie plate. Mound the apples in the center. Simply Recipes / Annika Panikker
Roll out the top crust, place over apples, and trim and crimp edges: Roll out the second disk of dough, again to 12 inches. Gently place the second round of pie dough over the apples.
Brush with the egg wash and cut vents: Place egg yolk and cream in a small bowl and use a fork to stir until well combined. Use a pastry brush to brush the egg wash over the top and fluted edges of the pie.
Bake: Place the pie on the oven rack centered over the baking sheet on the rack below it to catch any drippings. Bake the pie at 375°F until the crust begins to lightly brown, about 20 minutes, then reduce heat to 350°F.
Cool: Transfer the apple pie to a rack to cool for at least 1 hour. Serve slightly warm or at room temperature. Great with a side of vanilla ice cream.
