Ingredients
| 2 | cups flour |
|---|---|
| 1⁄2 | teaspoon salt |
| 1⁄2 | teaspoon baking powder |
| 1 | tablespoon sugar |
| 8 | ounces unsalted butter, cold and cubed |
| 1⁄2 | cup sour cream, cold |
| 6 | medium-to-large apples, sliced thin |
| 3 | teaspoons ground cinnamon |
| 3 | tablespoons sugar |
| 2 | tablespoons apple juice or lemon juice |
| 2 | tablespoons unsalted butter |
| 1 | egg |
| 1 | tablespoon water |
Instructions
| 1. | Combine flour, sugar, salt, baking powder, and cubed unsalted Butter using a pastry cutter until small clumps form and the mixture develops a crumbly texture. Ensure butter clumps are no larger than the size of a pea. |
|---|---|
| 2. | Add cold sour cream and mix until just combined, being careful not to over mix. Wrap the dough in plastic and chill for one hour. |
| 3. | Peel and thinly slice apples. Place in a bowl with apple juice or lemon juice, sugar, and cinnamon, ensuring all apple slices are coated. |
| 4. | Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). |
| 5. | On a floured surface, roll out the pie crust into a 1/4-inch thick circle. Transfer the dough to a parchment-lined baking sheet. |
| 6. | Arrange the apples on the dough, either layering them in a circular design or piling them on top, leaving space to fold over the edges of the dough. Fold over the excess dough to cover the outer edge of the apples. |
| 7. | Cut unsalted butter into pieces and scatter over the apples. |
| 8. | Whisk the egg and water together. Brush the egg wash over the dough edges, sprinkle with sugar, and bake until golden brown, about 35 to 45 minutes. |
| 9. | Allow to cool, then cut into slices and serve. Add a dollop of vanilla ice cream for an extra treat. |
