Cinnamon Swirl Apple Crumble Pie
Ingredients
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 cup cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 6-8 medium-sized apples, peeled and sliced
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
Instructions
Make the Crust
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Add cold butter and use a pastry blender or fingers to work it into the dry ingredients until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Gradually add granulated sugar and mix until dough comes together in a ball.
- Wrap dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
Make the Filling
- In a separate mixing bowl, combine sliced apples, brown sugar, and cinnamon.
- Mix well to coat apples evenly with dry ingredients.
Assemble the Pie
- Roll out chilled dough on a lightly floured surface to a thickness of about 1/8 inch (3 mm).
- Transfer dough to a 9-inch pie dish and trim edges to fit.
- Fill pie crust with apple mixture and dot top with butter.
- Roll out remaining dough to a similar size as the original, using it to create a lattice-top crust or a simple solid top.
- Crimp edges of top crust to seal.
Bake the Pie
- Brush top crust with egg wash (beaten egg mixed with a splash of milk) and sprinkle with granulated sugar.
- Bake pie in preheated oven for 40-50 minutes, or until crust is golden brown and apples are tender.
Serve Warm
- Remove from oven and let cool for 10-15 minutes before serving warm.
- Enjoy your Cinnamon Swirl Apple Crumble Pie!
