Zubereitung von Apple Of Her Eye Pie
- **Make the crust:** In a large bowl, whisk together 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon dry mustard, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
- Cut in 1 cup (2 sticks) cold unsalted butter and 1/2 cup cold vegetable shortening using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Stir in 1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese.
- Gradually add ice water, 2 tablespoons at a time, mixing with a fork until the dough just comes together.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently 2-3 times. Divide the dough into two unequal portions (one slightly larger than the other). Wrap in plastic wrap and chill for at least 45 minutes.
- **Prepare the filling:** Peel, core, and chop 6 medium apples (about 6 cups).
- In a large bowl, toss the apples with 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) melted unsalted butter, 3/4 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 cup packed light brown sugar, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg, and 1/4 teaspoon ground allspice.
- **Assemble the pie:** On a lightly floured surface, roll out the smaller portion of dough into a 12-inch circle. Carefully transfer to a 9-inch pie plate.
- Pour the apple filling into the pie crust.
- Roll out the larger portion of dough and place it over the filling. Trim and crimp the edges to seal.
- Cut several slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape. Brush the top with a little milk or cream for a golden brown crust.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 75-85 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. If the crust starts to brown too quickly, cover the edges with foil.
