Zubereitung von 21 Apple Pie
- **Make the pie crust:** In a large bowl, cut 1 cup (2 sticks) cold unsalted butter, cut into cubes, into 3 cups all-purpose flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Gradually add 1/2 cup ice water, mixing until the dough just comes together. Do not overmix.
- Form the dough into a ball, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
- **Prepare the apple filling:** Melt 1/4 cup unsalted butter in a large skillet over medium heat until lightly browned.
- Add 6 medium apples (about 3 pounds), peeled, cored, and thinly sliced, and cook for 2-3 minutes until softened.
- In a bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup lemon juice, 3/4 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 cup packed brown sugar, 2 tablespoons Southern Comfort (optional), and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
- Add the sugar mixture to the apples and cook over medium-high heat for 2-3 minutes, or until the apples are caramelized and coated in sugar.
- Remove from heat and let cool completely.
- **Assemble the pie:** Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out half of the dough into a 12-inch circle. Transfer to a 9-inch pie plate.
- Fill the crust with the cooled apple filling using a slotted spoon to drain excess juices (reserve juices for a sauce).
- Roll out the remaining dough into a slightly larger circle. Place it over the filling and crimp the edges to seal.
- Cut several slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.
- Brush the crust with 1 egg beaten with 1 tablespoon of water.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
- Let cool completely on a wire rack before serving.
- **Optional Sauce:** Reduce reserved apple juices with 1/4 cup heavy cream on the stovetop over medium heat until thickened. Serve warm over pie slices.
