Crab Apple Pie Food

CRAB APPLE PIE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Prepare the pie pastry. Line the pie pan with the bottom crust, using half of the dough. Keep the remaining dough chilled Arrange the crab apples in the crust. Combine the sugar, flour and cinnamon and sprinkle over the crab apples. Combine the lemon juice and water and sprinkle over the sugar. Roll out the top crust and lay it on the filling. Trim off any excess dough, crimp the edges, and prick with the tines of a fork to vent. Bake at 450 degrees F for 10 minutes. Reduce the heat to 350 degrees and bake about 40 minutes more or until golden brown.

ROSY CRABAPPLE OR APPLE PIE FILLING - (FREEZE OR CAN)

Steps:

• In large pot steam sliced apples 1- 2 minutes.
• Cool 1- 2 minutes.
• Add the rest of the ingredients and pie filler is ready to use.
• Hint When dealing with large quantities of apples I prepare double and triple batches of the pie filler, cool and set into the fridge while preparing the pastry.
• I find using the recipe 'Lemon Tang Pastry' which was passed to me as no-fail pastry works so very well making the preparation of pies for the freezer a snap.
• Time depends on how fast you can prepare the apples, those with experience do get throught prep time quickly!

CRAB APPLE PIE

Steps:

• In a large skillet, mix together the apples, water, lemon juice and brown sugar and bring to a simmer. Cook and stir for about 10 minutes until the apples have just started to soften - they should have also released a lot of their juice.
• Drain the whole mixture through a colander over a large bowl then put the liquid back into the skillet, and the well drained apples into the bowl.
• To the skillet add the butter and maple syrup, bring it to a boil and reduce it to about a half cup if you can. I was doing several things at once (and was using a non-stick skillet), so I left it on low and actually let it simmer for a good half hour.
• To the apples, add the flour, cinnamon and salt and mix well - they will appear dry, and I couldn't quite get all of the flour to absorb. Preheat the oven to 450.
• Roll out your pastry as you would and fit it into the pie plate (deep dish, as usual for me) with a bit extra hanging over the edges. Fill the prepared crust with the apple mixture then pour the reduced 'juice' evenly over top. Cover with the second sheet of pastry, dampen, trim and flute the edges and cut a couple of air vents into the top.
• I baked this at 450 for 10 minutes and then covered the edges with foil, or an 'edge protector', and turned the heat down to 350 and baked it for another 30 minutes - remember that the apples are almost cooked, but I like the bottom crust (visible through a Pyrex pie plate) to definitely be golden brown.
• Allow the pie to cool for 2 to 3 hours before serving so that it can set and you can serve it in pieces. We enjoyed this straight up, and are still super excited about it!

CLASSIC APPLE CRUMB PIE

Steps:

• Make the crust: Whisk the flour, granulated sugar and salt in a large bowl. Rub the butter pieces into the flour using your fingers until pea-size pieces form. Drizzle in the vinegar and ice water; stir gently with a fork to combine. If the dough doesn't hold together when you squeeze it, add more ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time. Turn out the dough onto a piece of plastic wrap and form into a disk; wrap tightly. Refrigerate until firm, at least 1 hour or overnight.
• Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface into a 13-inch round. Ease into a 9-inch pie plate. Trim the edges, leaving a 1-inch overhang, then tuck the overhanging dough under itself; crimp the edges with a fork. Refrigerate until firm, at least 1 hour or overnight.
• Meanwhile, make the crumb topping: Mix the flour, brown sugar, cinnamon and salt in a medium bowl. Rub the butter into the mixture with your fingers until no longer floury and crumbs form. Freeze until ready to use.
• Make the filling: Place a foil-lined baking sheet on the lowest oven rack; preheat to 400˚. Mix the apples, melted butter, both sugars, flour, lemon juice, cinnamon and salt in a large bowl. Spoon the filling into the chilled pie crust. Pat the crumb mixture on top.
• Bake the pie on the hot baking sheet until lightly browned, about 30 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 350˚ and bake until the apples are completely soft when pierced with a paring knife, 60 to 80 more minutes. (If the topping is getting too dark, cover loosely with foil.) Transfer the pie to a rack to cool completely.

JOE'S STONE CRAB AMAZING APPLE CRUMB PIE RECIPE - (4.5/5)

Steps:

• For the filling: Peel, quarter, and core the apples. And slice them into a large mixing bowl, tossing them with the lemon juice to prevent darkening. In a small bowl, stir together the sugar flour, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, and salt. Sprinkle this mixture over the apples and toss to coat. For the topping: In a food processor, or using two knives or your fingers, cut together the flour and butter, leaving the butter in pieces about the size of a nickel. Mix in the brown sugar, then the pecans. Refrigerate the mixture. Scatter the apple mixture into the crust, mounding it in the center. Place in the oven; place a sheet of aluminum foil on the rack below to catch any drips. Bake for 25 minutes. Raise the oven heat to 400°F. Scatter the topping over the apples, covering them completely and pressing gently to adhere. Bake until the topping is nicely browned, 25 to 30 minutes longer. Cool the pie on a wire rack; serve at room temperature or lukewarm.
