Apple pie recipe in homemade us
Sure! Here's a classic apple pie recipe that's popular in the USA:
Ingredients:
- 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup unsalted butter, chilled and cut into small pieces
- ¼ to ½ cup ice water
- 8 cups tart apples (such as Granny Smith), peeled, cored, and thinly sliced
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- ¼ cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
- 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar (for sprinkling)
Instructions:
1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and salt. Add the chilled butter pieces and cut them into the flour using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
2. Gradually add the ice water, a tablespoon at a time, and mix until the dough comes together. Be careful not to overmix. Divide the dough in half, shape each half into a disk, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
3. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
4. In a separate bowl, combine the sliced apples, sugar, flour, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Toss until the apples are evenly coated.
5. Roll out one disk of dough on a lightly floured surface to fit a 9-inch pie dish. Place the rolled-out dough into the dish and trim any excess from the edges.
6. Spoon the apple filling into the pie dish, mounding it slightly in the center. Dot the top with small pieces of butter.
7. Roll out the second disk of dough and place it over the filling. Trim any excess and crimp the edges of the pie to seal it. Cut a few slits on the top crust to allow steam to escape.
8. Optional: You can create a lattice crust by cutting the rolled-out dough into strips and weaving them over the pie filling.
9. Brush the top crust with beaten egg wash and sprinkle with sugar.
10. Place the pie on a baking sheet to catch any drips and bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Then reduce the oven temperature to 375°F (190°C) and continue baking for another 40 to 50 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
11. Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack before serving. This allows the filling to set.
12. Serve the apple pie warm or at room temperature. It's delicious on its own or served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
Enjoy your homemade apple pie!
