How to Make Oh La La French Apple Pie
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Make the custard: In a saucepan, whisk together the eggs, sugar, cornstarch, salt, and vanilla extract. Gradually whisk in the milk and cream until smooth.
- Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the custard thickens and coats the back of a spoon (about 5-7 minutes). Remove from heat and stir in the butter.
- Peel, core, and slice the apples. In a bowl, toss the apples with 2 tablespoons of sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
- Prepare the pie crust: Roll out one disc of pie crust and place it in a 9-inch pie plate. Trim and crimp the edges.
- Spread a thin layer of apricot preserves over the bottom crust.
- Arrange the apple slices over the apricot preserves.
- Pour the vanilla custard evenly over the apples.
- Roll out the second pie crust disc. Cut into 1-inch strips.
- Weave the strips over the pie to create a lattice top, twisting the strips as you go for a 3D effect.
- Trim and crimp the edges of the top crust, tucking the ends under the bottom crust.
- Brush the top crust with egg wash (1 egg beaten with 1 tablespoon of water).
- Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
- Let the pie cool completely before serving. Enjoy!
