Fishmarket Apple Pie Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• In a bowl combine apples, sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt. Place mixture in a pastry-lined 9 inch pie plate. Dot with butter and adjust top crust that has been vented.
• Place in oven and bake at 425 degrees F (220 degrees C) for 10 minutes. Turn oven temperature down to 275-300 degrees F (135-150 degrees C) and bake 40-50 minutes or until crust is golden brown and apples are tender. Let cool and serve.

Steps:

• Crust: Combine all the ingredients and roll out into 10-inch pie plate.
• Filling: Mix together all ingredients and fill pie. Bake at 450°F for 10 min. and then 350°F for 35-40 min. Stir filling after 20 min. and then 15 min. later.
• Topping: Put on top of filling and bake 15 min. longer at 350°F.

Steps:

• For the crust: Combine the flour, baking powder and salt in a food processor and run for 10 seconds. Add the butter and pulse in 1-second bursts until only very small pieces of butter are visible, 12 to 15 pulses. Pulse in the Sauternes, and then pulse in the ice water 1 tablespoon at a time until the dough just comes together.
• Turn the dough out onto a sheet of plastic wrap and bring together into a ball. Turn the dough out onto a dry surface and divide into 2 disks, one slightly larger than the other. Wrap in plastic and refrigerate for 1 hour or up to overnight.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Place an oven rack in the lower third of the oven. Roll out the larger disk of dough on a lightly-floured surface until 1/8-inch thick and 11 inches in diameter to fit a 9-inch pie plate. Place into the pie plate and trim the overhang to 1/2 inch without crimping the edges. Refrigerate while preparing the filling.
• For the filling: Combine the Sauternes and lemon juice in a medium bowl. Peel, halve and core the apples and slice them into 1/4-inch wedges. Toss the apples with the wine and lemon juice.
• Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add half of the apples and some of the wine and lemon juice, sprinkle with half of the sugar and cook, stirring, until the sugar dissolves and the mixture begins to simmer, about 2 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium and cook the apples until they soften and there are no juices in the pan, about 8 minutes.
• Transfer the apples to a medium bowl. Melt 2 more tablespoons of butter in the same skillet, and repeat with the remaining apples, wine and lemon juice and sugar. If any juice has collected from the first batch of apples, pour those juices over the second batch of apples while they are cooking.
• Toss together both batches of apples with the cinnamon and cardamom, if using. Set aside to cool completely.
• For assembling: Pour the filling into the prepared pie shell. Roll the smaller disk of dough on a lightly-floured surface to 1/8-inch thick and place on top of the filling. Fold the edges over and then decoratively crimp. Cut slits into the top crust to allow steam to escape, and then transfer to the freezer for 30 minutes to let the dough rest.
• Brush the crust with the melted butter and sprinkle with the sugar. Place in the lower third of oven and bake until golden brown, 45 minutes to 1 hour.
• Cook's Note: You can cook the apples for the filling 1 day ahead.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 450. Grease a 2 quart casserole. Mix together yogurt or sour cream, 1/2 cup sugar, salt, vanilla, and 1/3 cup flour. Pour into casserole. Drop apples into mixture. Bake 10 minutes at 450 and another 40 minutes at 350. Stir together brown sugar, sugar, cinnamon, flour, butter and walnuts and top baked pie. Bake again another 15 minutes at 350.
