  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup chilled unsalted butter
  • 6 to 8 large apples (about 3 1/2 pounds; a mix of Granny Smith and Honeycrisp)
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • 4 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut in 1/4-inch dice
  • 1 TBSP plus 1 tsp cornstarch
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract (alcohol-free)

  • 1/2 cup heavy cream

Instructions

  1. Prepare the crust by mixing flour, salt, and sugar in a food processor. Add chilled butter until crumbly, then gradually add ice water to form dough. Chill for at least one hour.
  2. Roll out the dough and fit it into a deep-dish pie pan; prick the bottom with a fork.
  3. For the crumb topping, mix sugars, cinnamon, and flour in the processor; cut in cold butter until crumbly.
  4. Sauté sliced apples in two pans with sugar until tender; combine with spices and cornstarch before pouring into the prepared crust.
  5. Top with crumb mixture and bake at 350°F (175°C) covered with foil initially, then uncovered for golden browning.
  6. Prepare the hot buttered vanilla sauce while the pie bakes by whisking brown sugar, corn syrup, butter, and salt until boiling; stir in heavy cream after cooling slightly.
