Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 medium Apples (firm, tart variety like Granny Smith or Honeycrisp)
- 150 grams Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 120 grams All-purpose flour
- 115 grams Unsalted butter
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 50 grams Light brown sugar
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and grease a 9-inch pie dish.
Peel, core, and slice the apples into thin wedges. Arrange them evenly in the greased pie dish.
Sprinkle 50 grams of granulated sugar and the ground cinnamon over the apple slices, tossing them gently to coat.
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Allow it to cool slightly once melted.
In a mixing bowl, combine the remaining 100 grams of granulated sugar, light brown sugar, salt, and flour. Mix well.
Add the melted butter, egg, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients, and stir until fully incorporated. The mixture will be thick and batter-like.
Pour the batter evenly over the apple slices, smoothing the top with a spatula to cover as much of the fruit as possible.
Place the pie dish on the middle rack of the oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and crisp.
Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool for at least 15 minutes before serving. This helps the crust set and makes it easier to slice.
Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra indulgent treat.
