Experience the magic of this exceptional apple pie! Three secrets elevate it above the ordinary: rich, intensely flavored boiled cider (or a delicious alternative using frozen apple juice concentrate), a 2-hour baking process for ultimate caramelisation and a tender crust, and the crucial step of letting it cool completely for a melt-in-your-mouth experience. This King Arthur Flour-inspired recipe is a game-changer, producing arguably the best apple pie you'll ever make. The boiled cider adds a depth of flavor unlike any other apple pie. A pint bottle, easily sourced online from various cider mills (Vermont offers the best value!), yields multiple pies.
