    INGREDIENTS:
    APPLE FILLING:
    ▪1200g (8 whole) granny smith apples, med-large diced
    ▪125g (1/2c) brown sugar
    ▪6g (2 1/2t) cinnamon
    ▪5g (1t) coarse salt
    ▪50g (1/3c) corn starch
    ▪15g (1T) lemon juice
    ▪A small pinch of fresh grated nutmeg
    Toss filling until evenly distributed.
    --
    STREUSEL TOPPING
    ▪375g (3c) ap flour
    ▪225g (1c) brown sugar
    ▪6g (2 1/2t) cinnamon
    ▪5g (1t) coarse salt
    ▪75g (2/3c) chopped pecans
    ▪230g (2 sticks) unsalted butter, melted
    Mix and fluff until combined and broken down into pea sized pebbles.
    --
    CRUST:
    ▪300g (2 sticks + 5T) unsalted butter, frozen and grated
    ▪400g (3 1/3c) AP flour
    ▪40g (1/4c) sugar
    ▪6g (1 1/4t) salt
    ▪130g (1/2c) ice cold water
    Add flour, sugar, salt, and grated frozen butter to a food processor and pulse 4-5 times until flour and butter have combined into a coarse gravely texture. Add half the water, then pulse while adding the other half until the water is evenly spread. Dough should still be pebbly at this point, but holds together when you squeeze it.
    Transfer dough into a bowl and press it together into a mass of dough. Place the dough onto plastic wrap and enclose the dough, in a plastic wrap rectangle, leaving room on all sides to pound and roll the dough out into a flat rectangular shape of the wrap. Place dough in the fridge for an hour.
    Remove from the fridge, unwrap, and allow to sit at room temperature for 15 minutes. Unwrap and transfer to a well floured surface. Roll out into a large rectangle that’s about 15”/38cm x 20”/50cm. It should be larger than a half sheet tray. Roll the dough onto the rolling pin and unroll onto a well buttered half sheet tray, pressing into the corners and crimping the edges.
    Dock the bottom of the crust with a fork, then add apples and all of the drippings in the bowl. Spread evenly.
    Top evenly with streusel.
    Bake in a preheated 375F/190C oven on top of a pizza stone or steel for 45-50.

      might as well also freeze the food processor components- DON'T freeze the part with the cord attached (aka the base). a frozen power cord is not fun to deal with. i mean, you **can.** if you're feeling up to it. but probably also isn't good for the motor. so just freeze the bowl, the blade, and the lid.

    I just made this and brought most of it into work, nothing but great reviews from everyone whos tried it! It holds together super well. I cut it up into smaller bars because its such a rich desert.
    A bit of feedback for anyone else who tries this recipe.
    1) You definitely don't need a food processor to make pie crust! I followed Claire Saffitz's recipe for making it by hand. Obviously its a bit more a pain (homemade pie crust is deceptively hard) but it came out solid. It came out a bit tougher than I would have liked but I bet I just used too much water.
    2) If you don't use a pizza stone, put something to catch butter drippings underneath your sheet pan. There's a wicked amount of butter in this recipe and the excess was dripping over the sheet pan and burning at the bottom of the stove. Made for a bit of a smoke show.
    3) I used 1200g of thinly sliced McIntosh apples since that's what we picked at the orchard, definitely no complaints on the sweeter taste!
    Overall, great recipe! Can definitely see myself making it again.

    My mother made a similar version to this.

One of the most moist apple pies while still having a nice crunchy nutty topping.

    How long does the butter need to freeze before it can be used?
    Might even make tonight if its possible (its almost 530pm here though.

    One thing, I remember you posting something about ingredient measurements.. I love the weight measurements for flour and or liquid, but for spices, it would be easier if they were in volume measurements since it’s not going to change the recipe too much. To me it’s just easier to scoop up half a teaspoon of cinnamon than trying to measure out 6g of it. Anyways! Thank you for the awesome recipe!!

    I am glad I landed on one of your videos a few weeks ago, I've watched 3/4 of all your videos and you are definitely in my top 3 favorite/most watched chefs on UA-cam. I've made several of your bread and dough recipes and they turned out great, I've been cooking for 10 years and learning from experience, books and chefs on Internet, but I just recently started doing more pastry and baking breads and pizza etc and you've taught me a ton in a short time. Yesterday I made your cheddar broccoli soup but instead of bread bowls I just dipped in torn baguettes I had from the day before (your regular baguette recipe, not beginner lol) and for dessert made this Apple Pie with apples off my tree that aren't grannies but are rather firm and tart so they worked great. Also used a deeper and less wide glass baking tray instead of sheet pan so mine was a bit thicker and took 55 mins to bake. Vanilla ice cream on top and omg it was best meal and dessert I've made in a decent while. Thanks for the great content please keep it up B-Man 😂

  • @macsarcule
    @macsarcule 7 місяців тому +8

    Imma say the biggest problem with apple pie is there's never enough.🙂
    I'm sad you've been subjected to such bad apple pie that you didn't like the filling - maybe over cooked apples? Maybe the wrong apples for a pie? I dunno. There's a chance that like many people, you don't like fruit pies in general? 🙂
    The salty sweetness of crumb toppings always outshine the fruit, so maybe my frame of reference is a standard double-crust apple pie where the filling of just-done fruit (some variety of baking apple) is the star.
    The cultural kitchen info about different apple varieties that are baking apples, saucing apples, and eating apples has largely disappeared. This might be the single biggest problem with apple pies. Pie crusts have gradually become thicker and thicker in cooking videos over the years too, but I don't know this is a problem. This thicker crust is definitely easier to handle and more foolproof for videos, but as someone who often leaves behind all that extra edge crust used to seal a pie, i'm not much of a crust fan unless it's rolled thin, so there's another bias i have.
    That said, I wanted to share another option for some killer apple bars that perform like pie: Danish Apple Bars. Thin buttery crust, good apples shine front and center, and even though this makes a big sheet pan of them, you'll wish you had three sheet pans of them. They're very midwesty, they're not a sugar bomb, but very good.
    Danish Apple Bars
    Crust
    2 1/2 c flour
    1 t salt
    1 c butter
    1 egg separated
    2/3ish c milk
    Filling
    1 c crushed corn flakes
    10-12 thinly sliced apples
    1 c sugar + 1 t cinnamon
    1 T red hots
    Icing
    1 c powdered sugar
    1/4 c milk
    Combine flour & salt, cut in butter.
    Beat egg yolk and add enough milk to it to make 2/3 cup liquid.
    Mix into flour with a fork.
    Roll out 1/2 the dough to 17x12 and fit into 11 x 15 pan.
    Sprinkle dough with crushed cornflakes and top with thinly sliced apples. Combine sugar & cinnamon and sprinkle over apples. Top with red hots.
    Roll out remaining dough and place over filling, pricking the surface with a fork. It's ok if the edge isn't sealed, this can really just float on the apples, but you want to get as close to the edge as you can.
    Beat the egg white until slightly frothy and brush on crust.
    Bake at 375 for 50 minutes.
    Combine powdered sugar and 1/4 cup milk (or less milk as desired) and drizzle over cooled bars.
    Cut into squares and serve room temp or chilled.
    Much peace ✌🙂

      @@JW-vd4il it actually came out really good! I was so worried about the crust but when everything was baked it was a lot more forgiving than I expected it to be. I was sure I ruined it but nope! It still tasted amazing. Very buttery…almost like a butter cookie.
      It wasn’t as pretty as Brian’s but once the filling and topping are on the crust is barely visible.
      I say go for it. But I’d suggest watching a few videos on making a pie crust to get a good idea of how much flour is typically used when rolling it out. I think I was way stingier than I needed to be bc I was afraid I’d ruin the flavor.

    I don't have a food processor, but I do have a kitchen aid stand mixer. From a ChefStep's pie crust recipe they suggested freezing/refrigerating all components for a short period of time (so the paddle attachment, the bowl and all the ingredients). I found after a few years of testing that method, that it really does help keep the butter firm enough and ultimately comes out with a great crust no matter the pie I make (sweet or savory)
