Description
A delightful and easy-to-make apple slab pie that is perfect for gatherings and family dinners.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup unsalted butter, chilled and diced
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup ice water
- 6 cups thinly sliced apples (such as Granny Smith or Honeycrisp)
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large bowl, mix flour, sugar, and salt. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Stir in ice water, a tablespoon at a time, until mixture forms a ball. Wrap in plastic and refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight.
- Roll out half of the dough on a floured surface to fit a 13×18 inch baking sheet. Place in the baking sheet.
- In another bowl, combine sliced apples, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, lemon juice, and cornstarch. Mix well.
- Pour the apple mixture into the crust-lined baking sheet.
- Roll out the remaining dough and place it over the apple filling. Seal the edges and cut slits in the top for steam to escape.
- Brush the top with beaten egg.
- Bake for 45-50 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the apples are tender.
- Allow to cool before slicing and serving.
Notes
- For a sweeter pie, add more sugar to the apple filling.
- Serve with vanilla ice cream for an extra treat.
- Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
