Ingredients

• 2.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 cup Unsalted butter (cold and cubed)
• 6 tablespoons Ice water
• 6 medium Granny Smith apples (peeled, cored, and thinly sliced)
• 0.5 cup Pure maple syrup
• 0.25 cup Light brown sugar (packed)
• 2 tablespoons Cornstarch
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon Nutmeg
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 1 Egg (beaten, for egg wash)
• 2 teaspoons Coarse sugar (for topping)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, granulated sugar, and salt. Cut in the cold, cubed butter using a pastry cutter or fork until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 2

Gradually add the ice water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough comes together. Divide the dough into two disks, wrap them in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Step 3

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 4

In a large bowl, toss the sliced apples with maple syrup, brown sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, nutmeg, and lemon juice. Ensure the apples are evenly coated, and set aside.

Step 5

On a lightly floured surface, roll out one of the chilled dough disks into a 12-inch circle. Fit it into a 9-inch pie dish, trimming any excess dough from the edges.

Step 6

Pour the apple filling into the prepared pie crust, spreading it evenly.

Step 7

Roll out the second dough disk into another 12-inch circle. Place it over the apple filling. Trim, fold, and crimp the edges to seal the pie. Cut a few small slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.

Step 8

Brush the top crust with the beaten egg and sprinkle with coarse sugar for a golden, glistening finish.

Step 9

Place the pie on a baking sheet to catch any drips and bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the filling is bubbling.

Step 10

Let the pie cool on a wire rack for at least 2 hours before serving to allow the filling to set.

Step 11

Slice and serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream!
