Honey Roasted Apple Pie Recipe
First up, we have a Honey Roasted Apple Pie recipe from Bee Well Honey. This recipe takes traditional apple pie to the next level with the addition of honey-roasted apples. Here’s what you’ll need:
- 1 double pie crust
- 6 cups peeled, cored, and sliced apples (about 6 medium apples)
- 1/2 cup honey
- 1/4 cup flour
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon allspice
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon cold butter
Preheat your oven to 375°F. Roll out one of your pie crusts and place it in a 9-inch pie dish. In a large bowl, combine the sliced apples, honey, flour, cinnamon, vanilla extract, salt, nutmeg, allspice, and lemon juice. Toss everything together until the apples are coated in the mixture, then pour it all into your prepared pie crust. Chop your tablespoon of butter into small pieces and sprinkle it over the top of the apple mixture.
Roll out your second pie crust and place it over the top of the apples. Crimp the edges of the crusts together to seal them, and then slice a few small slits in the top of the crust to allow steam to escape. Place the pie on a baking sheet (to catch any drips) and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the apples are tender.
