Glazed Flat Apple Pie Recipe 455

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine flour and salt; cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. In a measuring cup, combine egg yolk and enough milk to measure 1/3 cup. Gradually add to the flour mixture, tossing with a fork until dough forms a ball. , Preheat oven to 350°. Divide dough in half. Roll one portion into a thin 15x10-in. rectangle. Transfer to the bottom of an ungreased 15x10x1-in. baking pan. Sprinkle with cornflakes. , In a large bowl, combine apples, 1 cup sugar, 1-1/2 teaspoons cinnamon and nutmeg; toss to coat. Spoon over crust. , Roll remaining dough into a thin 15x10-in. rectangle; place over apple filling. Beat egg white; brush over pastry. Combine remaining sugar and cinnamon; sprinkle over the top. Bake 45-50 minutes or until golden brown. , For glaze, combine confectioners' sugar, vanilla and enough milk to achieve a drizzling consistency. Drizzle over warm pastry. Cool completely on a wire rack. Cut into squares.

Steps:

• CRUST (NOTE: I use my food processor): In the food processor, with the blade attachment, and combine the flour and salt. Add the shortening, and pulse until the dough is crumbly and sticks together. Add the egg and vinegar and pulse until the dough is just combined. If using a pastry cutter: Combine flour and salt. Cut in shortening with a pastry blender until dough is crumbly and the size of small peas. Combine egg, water and vinegar and add to flour mixture. Mix with a fork until dough stick together. Divide the dough in half, and heap onto plastic wrap. Shape the dough into a disc and refrigerate. This can be done a day or two ahead, or even frozen for a couple of weeks. Roll out on well-floured board to desired thickness and ease into pie pan. NOTES: I find that this pie crust can be more challenging to work with, because of the egg. It tends to break apart, and needs "patching". It can be a little frustrating, but it's worth it. The end result is that the crust is very tender. Yes, you can make this pie in a traditional pie pan. The flat apple pie makes this easier to serve to larger crowds, and is easier to work with the dough. PIE FILLING: Peel, core and slice the apples (I bought an apple, corer and peeler and love how fast and easy it is to do this.) Mix the ClearJel (or flour) to the sugar and whisk together and pour over the apples. Add the spices, then the lemon juice and stir to combine. Using a half-sheet baking pan, spray with non-stick coating. Place the bottom half of the pie crust, leaving at least a 1/3" overhang. Evenly spread the apple filling and dot with small pats of butter. Roll the second crust and carefully place over the pie. Cut slots for steam with a paring knife. OPTIONAL: I like to whisk one egg with a splash of water and brush it over the top layer of the pie crust, so it will bake a beautiful golden brown. Then, I sprinkle coarse sugar on top for a crunchy texture. Place the pie on a large baking sheet (I placed mine on a baking stone) and bake at 375°F for 30 to 45 minutes, until golden brown and the apples are bubbly and caramelized. TO GLAZE THE PIE: I like to balance a cooling rack of my kitchen sink. Mix the glaze, and then spoon over the hot pie. You can also add chopped walnut pieces, but my family doesn't like nuts, so I didn't. I'll bet that's delicious!

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine 1/2 cup sugar, 1/2 cup milk, 1/2 cup cream, and 1/4 cup butter. Heat until butter is melted, stirring occasionally. In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch, 2 tablespoons milk, and vanilla; stir into saucepan. Cook until thickened, stirring constantly. Remove from heat, and set aside to cool slightly.

• With a rolling pin, begin rolling out the Perfect Pie Crusts into large circles. Roll the dough from the center outward. Be gentle and patient, it'll take a little time to get the dough completely rolled out.
• If you think the bottom is really sticking to the surface below, use a nice, sharp spatula to loosen the dough and sprinkle some extra flour on top. Then flip it over to finish rolling. Remember to roll from the center in single, outward strokes, no back-and-forth rolling.
• Again with a spatula, loosen and lift the dough and carefully place the circles on large baking sheets.
• Place half the apple mixture on one crust and the other half on the other crust. Fold over the edges of each crust so that it covers 2 to 3 inches of the apple mixture. No need to be artistic - the more rustic the better. Dot the tops of the pies with chunks of the butter.
• Bake until the filling is golden and bubbly, 30 to 40 minutes. If the crust appears to brown too quickly, cover the edges with aluminum foil for the remaining baking time.
• Allow to cool slightly, then slice into wedges with a pizza cutter. Eat 'em on the go!
• Combine the flour and salt in a large bowl. Add in the butter and shortening. Using a pastry cutter, gradually work the butter and shortening into the flour until the mixture resembles tiny pebbles. This step should take 3 or 4 minutes.
• Lightly beat the egg with a fork, and then add it to the mixture. Next, add in the cold water and vinegar. Stir the mixture together until it's just combined, and then remove half the dough from the bowl.

• 6. Bake til filling is golden & bubbly, about 30-40 minutes. Cover edges with foil if browning too quickly.
• 7. Allow to cool slightly, then slice into wedges with a pizza cutter.

Steps:

• TIP:( Use your favorite baking apples a combination of Granny Smiths (for their tart flavor and crisp texture) and Cortlands (for their sweetness and softer texture) is nice. Northern Spies or Ginger Golds are wonderful, if you can get them. ).
• For the filling*: Bring the apple cider to a boil in a saucepan over medium-high heat about 20 minutes, until reduced to about 2/3 cup.
• For Crust:.
• Combine the flour, salt and sugar, cinnamon in a food processor. Add the butter and shortening, and pulse until mixture forms coarse crumbs. Add 2 tablespoons of ice water to the flour mixture. With the machine running, add additional water, a tablespoon at a time, until clumps form. Mold the dough into two balls, shape into disks and wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
• On a lightly floured surface, roll out the remaining dough into a 13-inch round. Roll it up on the rolling pin and unroll it on the top of the pie. Trim the edges, leaving a 1-inch rim of dough. Fold that under and crimp the edges with your fingers or a fork. Slit the top crust with a knife a few times to let the steam escape. Or you can use a refigerated pie crust mix from the store.
• This pie crust is a lot easier to roll after it has chilled for two hours. It then absorbs less flour when rolled. The lemon juice will tenderize the gluten while baking--there is no need for any special precaution in rolling. The large circle of dough can be easily manipulated into the pan by first folding it in four, and then unfolding right in the pan, where the pan provides support. Your recipe directs the filling to be cooked and added to the rolled dough without saying anything about any cooling time. Using a hot filling makes the pastry get soggy in the oven.
