Caramel Apple Pie

A great crusty fruit-filled treat is consistently at the highest point of our fall preparing list, yet this year we are choosing to step it up. Caramel draws out the sweetness of apples and makes it taste much MORE like fall. It goes consummately with some espresso and a mammoth scoop of vanilla frozen yogurt.

DIRECTIONS:

1.       Make outside: Place flour and margarine into cooler for 30 minutes before beginning hull process.

2.       In an enormous bowl, consolidate flour, sugar, and salt. Include spread and utilizing your hands or a cake shaper, cut margarine into flour blend until pea-sized and some marginally bigger parts structure. Include vinegar and ice water 1 tablespoon at once, until batter begins to meet up and is wet however not wet and clingy (test by pressing some with your fingers). Blend will be brittle.

3.       Turn mixture onto a delicately floured surface, structure into 2 equivalent size balls, and smooth into circles (ensuring there are no/negligible splits).

4.       Spread with saran wrap and refrigerate until batter is freezing, at any rate 2 hours or up to medium-term.

5.       Preheat stove to 400° with an enormous heating sheet on the center rack.

6.       In an enormous skillet over medium warmth, include apples, dark colored sugar, lemon juice, cornstarch, cinnamon, and salt. Cook until fluid has thickened and apples are delicate, 12 to 15 minutes. Let cool while turning out batter.

7.       On a gently floured surface, turn out one plate of mixture into a 12" circle. Move outside layer to 9" pie plate and delicately press to fit. Trim edge to a 1" overhang, at that point fold under itself and crease edges. Layer apples over outside layer, at that point pour caramel over apples.

8.       Turn out second plate of mixture into a 12" circle. Cut into 10 strips. Lay 4 strips over apples. Overlay back the first and third strip and spot a fifth cut over apples the other way and lay collapsed back cuts over the fifth cut. Crease back the second and fourth strip and rehash cross section top with residual outside. Trim strips and press into creased outside layer. Stop for 15 minutes or until outside layer is very much chilled.

9.       Brush chilled hull with egg wash and sprinkle with coarse sugar. Spot pie plate onto preheated preparing sheet and heat until outside layer is extremely brilliant and filling is rising, around 50 minutes. On the off chance that outside layer begins to obscure too rapidly, spread freely with foil. Let cool on a wire rack in any event 2 hours before serving.

Serve up topped with more caramel and ice cream, if desired.
