It’s FALL so we’ve teamed up with Tracey of Perfect Pastry (and The Flour Mill) to give you a delicious recipe to try in your Staub cast iron frypan. We think this is quite literally, the BEST Skillet Apple Pie.
Skillet Apple Pie
Made in 10.25″ Staub Cast Iron Frypan
Preheat oven to 375F
INGREDIENTS
1 package frozen Perfect Pastry shortcrust pastry AVAILABLE at Bradshaws – defrosted
6-8 large apples peeled, cored and sliced in to roughly ¼”- ½” slices.
*Tracey recommends using – 4 Granny Smith for tartness and 4 honey crisp for sweet. Mixing up the apples makes the pie
more interesting in flavour and texture
1 cup Sugar
1/3 cup Flour
1 tsp Cinnamon
Egg wash – 1 egg mixed with a splash of water or cream
DIRECTIONS
Slice the pastry in half. Each half will become a top and bottom for your pie. Roll 1 piece pastry on a
lightly floured surface until it is large enough to fit in the skillet with about a 1-inch overhang.
Refrigerate while you prepare the filling.
Toss apple slices, sugar, flour and cinnamon together and pour into prepared tart shell.
Refrigerate again while you roll out the top. Keeping pastry cool is key to a great pie!
Roll out the second piece of pastry as before and drape it over the apples. Take the bottom and top
crusts and tuck them together, under and in to the skillet.
Brush egg wash over the top. Cut decorative slits in the pastry.
Sprinkle coarse (or regular) sugar over
the top.
Bake pie for 20 min at 375 and then reduce to 350 for approximately 45 minutes or until pastry is
golden and filling is bubbling.
At the 20 min mark, it’s not a bad idea to place a baking tray on the shelf below the pie to catch any drips.
This pie has a lovely rustic look. It can be sliced or scooped right out of the skillet. Serve with vanilla ice
cream or whipped cream and drizzled with one of our gourmet Stonewall Kitchen sauces.
We used Stonewall Kitchen Bourbon Pecan Caramel Sauce.
