Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2.5 cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
- 1 cup Cold unsalted butter
- 0.5 cup Ice water
- 1 tablespoon Apple cider vinegar
- 6 Apples, peeled, cored, and sliced
- 0.5 cup Brown sugar
- 0.25 cup Granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons Cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon Gluten-free pie crust egg wash (optional: use one beaten egg)
Instructions
In a large bowl, combine the gluten-free flour, salt, and sugar. Cut in the cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Mix the ice water and apple cider vinegar together. Gradually add to the flour mixture, stirring until the dough comes together.
Divide the dough into two discs, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
In another bowl, mix the apples, brown sugar, granulated sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, and lemon juice. Set aside for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally to let the flavors meld.
Roll out one dough disc between two pieces of parchment paper to fit a 9-inch pie pan. Carefully transfer to the pan and trim the excess.
Pour the apple mixture into the crust, mounding it slightly in the center.
Roll out the second dough disc and place over the filling. Trim, seal, and flute the edges. Cut small slits in the top to let steam escape.
Brush the top crust with egg wash if using to promote browning.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Reduce the temperature to 350°F (175°C) and continue baking for 45 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
Cool on a wire rack for at least 2 hours before serving to allow the filling to set.
