Have you ever had a hankering for some warm, home-cooked apple pie? Well, have no fear because I have found not just one, but two amazing recipes for Dutch Apple Pie that will knock your socks off!
Let’s start with the first recipe, shall we? This one comes from “Craving Home Cooked” and is sure to be a crowd-pleaser.
First, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Then, gather your ingredients:
– 1 pre-made pie crust
– 6 cups thinly sliced and peeled apples (Granny Smith, Golden Delicious or Honeycrisp work best)
– 1/2 cup unsalted butter
– 3 tbsp all-purpose flour
– 1/4 cup water
– 1/2 cup white sugar
– 1/2 cup brown sugar
– 1 tsp cinnamon
– 1/4 tsp nutmeg
– 1 tsp vanilla extract
Now, let’s get to the good stuff – making the pie! Start by rolling out your pie crust and fitting it into a 9-inch pie dish. Then, add your sliced apples into the crust.
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the flour to make a thick paste, then add the water, white sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and let simmer for 5 minutes, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract.
Pour the sauce mixture over the apples in the crust.
For the topping, combine:
– 1 cup all-purpose flour
– 1/2 cup white sugar
– 1/2 cup brown sugar
– 1 tsp cinnamon
– 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
Mix until it resembles coarse crumbs, then sprinkle over the top of the pie.
Bake for 45-50 minutes, until the crust is golden brown and the topping is crispy. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, if desired.
But wait, there’s more! Our second recipe comes from “Saving Room for Dessert” and is equally delicious.
Again, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and gather your ingredients:
– 1 pre-made pie crust
– 4 cups thinly sliced, peeled apples (Honeycrisp, Granny Smith or Pink Lady work best)
– 1 tbsp all-purpose flour
– 1/2 cup white sugar
– 1/2 tsp cinnamon
– 1/4 tsp salt
– 1/8 tsp nutmeg
Now, let’s get cooking! Start by placing the pie crust in a 9-inch pie dish.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the apples, flour, sugar, cinnamon, salt and nutmeg. Toss until the apples are fully coated.
Pour the apple mixture into the prepared crust.
For the topping, combine:
– 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
– 1/2 cup old-fashioned oats
– 1/2 cup brown sugar
– 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
Mix until it resembles large crumbs, then sprinkle over the top of the pie.
Bake for 45 minutes, until the crust is golden brown and the topping is crispy. Serve warm with a dollop of whipped cream, if desired.
And there you have it, folks – two amazing recipes for Dutch Apple Pie that are sure to satisfy any sweet tooth. So go ahead, get baking and enjoy!
