Ingredients

• 113 grams unsalted butter
• 150 grams dark brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons dark rum
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoons ground nutmeg
• 0.25 teaspoons ground cloves
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 6 apples, peeled, cored, and sliced thinly
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 100 grams walnuts, chopped
• 2 store-bought or homemade pie crusts
• 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
• 1 tablespoon granulated sugar (optional, for sprinkling on crust)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

In a medium-sized saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, stir in the dark brown sugar until dissolved and remove from heat.

Step 3

Add the rum, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and salt to the saucepan. Stir well and set the mixture aside.

Step 4

In a large bowl, toss the sliced apples with the all-purpose flour to coat evenly.

Step 5

Pour the butter and rum mixture over the apples and mix well until all slices are coated.

Step 6

Gently fold in the chopped walnuts to add crunch to your filling.

Step 7

Roll out one pie crust and fit it into a 9-inch pie dish, allowing the edges to overhang slightly.

Step 8

Spoon the apple-walnut mixture into the pie crust, ensuring the filling is evenly distributed.

Step 9

Cover the pie with the second crust. Trim and crimp the edges to seal, and cut a few small slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.

Step 10

Brush the top crust with the beaten egg and sprinkle with granulated sugar, if desired, for extra shine and sweetness.

Step 11

Place the pie on the middle rack of the preheated oven and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.

Step 12

Allow the pie to cool for at least 2 hours before slicing and serving so the filling can set properly.
