Caramel Topped Apple Pie Recipes

CARAMEL APPLE CRUMBLE PIE

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• To make the topping, combine the oats, 1/2 cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup flour, slivered almonds, and 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon. Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs; set aside.
• Roll out the pie dough into a circle and transfer it to a 9-inch pie plate. Trim the pastry and crimp the edge. Toss the apples with the lemon juice in a bowl to prevent browning. Combine the 1 tablespoon flour, 1/2 cup brown sugar, and 2 teaspoons cinnamon; toss with the apples to coat. Drizzle 1/4 cup of caramel sauce over the bottom of the pie shell. Add the spiced apple mixture; drizzle with remaining 1/4 cup of caramel sauce. Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the apples.
• Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until the apples are tender and the crust is browned.

CARAMEL APPLE PIE

Steps:

• For the perfect spiced pie crust: Mix the flour, cinnamon, salt and nutmeg in a bowl. Add the butter and vegetable shortening. Work the butter into the flour using a pastry cutter until the mixture resembles tiny pebbles. Add the white vinegar, egg and 5 tablespoons cold water and stir until just combined.
• Form 2 equal-sized balls. Place each in a large plastic bag (do not seal) and slightly flatten with a rolling pin; this makes it much easier to roll out the crust later. After flattening, seal the bag tightly. Place in the freezer for 15 to 20 minutes to chill.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Remove 1 bag of dough from the freezer (save the other dough for another use), remove the dough from the bag and place it on a lightly floured surface. Roll the dough starting at the center and working outward. Be gentle and patient; it'll take a little time to get the dough completely rolled out. If you think the bottom is really sticking to the surface below while rolling, use a metal spatula to loosen it. When fully rolled out, loosen again with a spatula and lift the pie crust into a 9-inch pie pan (or you can roll the pastry over the rolling pin, lift it onto the pie pan and unroll it). Gently press the dough against the corner of the pan and tear off any excess dough. Then tuck under the edges and go around the pie pan pinching the dough to crimp the edge.
• For the pie filling: In a bowl, mix the apples, lemon juice, granulated sugar, flour and salt. Set aside.
• For the crumb topping: Cut the butter into the flour with a pastry cutter, then add in the brown sugar, oats and salt.
• Add the apples to the prepared pie shell and top with the crumb topping. Bake for 1 hour, covering the edge of the crust with foil if it starts to brown too quickly. After an hour, sprinkle the chopped pecans over the pie, then bake for a further 5 minutes.
• Remove the pie from the oven and pour 1/2 jar (or more, if you're feeling dangerous and naughty) of caramel topping over the top. Allow to cool slightly before serving - or don't if you can't wait!

Steps:

• Prepare the caramel sauce and set aside.
• Preheat the oven to 400°. Press the bottom crust into a 9 inch pie pan and trim the excess with a sharp knife. Set in the fridge until the filling is ready.
• In a small bowl mix the sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt. In a medium bowl toss the sliced apples together with the spiced sugar mixture and the lemon juice. Pour into the chilled pie shell.
• Generously drizzle about half of the caramel sauce over the apples and then top with the lattice crust. Brush the top crust with the egg wash and sprinkle with course sugar.
• Place the pie on a baking sheet to prevent over spilling on the bottom of your oven and bake for 50 minutes, or until the filling is bubbling and the crust is nice and golden brown.
• Allow to cool on a rack for 20-30 minutes before drizzling more caramel sauce over the top.

• Place apples in the bottom crust, slightly mounded in the center. Cover apples with the cut dough strips, with four strips across and four strips vertical, weaving them in a lattice pattern if you wish.
• Fold edges of bottom crust over the lattice edges to seal, then crimp (or pinch) edges of crust, making a scalloped edge on pie crust.
• Spoon caramel sauce evenly over top crust, being sure to completely cover the top crust with caramel sauce.
• Bake at 425F for 15 minutes, to start caramelization. Reduce heat to 350F and bake an additional 35 to 40 minutes, or until apples are soft.
