Four Layer Pie Recipes

FOUR-FLAVOR SHEET PAN PIE

Steps:

• For the crusts: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Unroll 3 of the pie crusts on a lightly floured work surface. Stack them on top of each other. Roll out the thick, layered dough to a 15-by-21-inch rectangle. Press into a rimmed baking sheet so that the crust comes up the sides and hangs over slightly. This will be the bottom crust. Chill until ready to use, at least 30 minutes.
• Use the remaining crust for the top of the pie. Unroll it on a lightly floured work surface and roll it to a 14-by-18-inch rectangle. Cut the dough in half so you have two 7-by-9-inch pieces. One half will be the top crust for the apple portion of the pie. Cut the other half into 1-inch diagonal strips to use for the lattice on the cherry pie. Place the rectangle and strips on a parchment-lined baking sheet and chill until ready to use.
• For the apple pie: Toss the apples in a medium bowl with the sugar and lemon juice. Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the apples and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 10 minutes. Stir in the flour, cinnamon and a pinch of salt and cook until thickened, about 1 minute more. Cool completely.
• For the sour cherry pie: Place the cherries in a medium bowl. Whisk 1/4 cup cherry juice with the cornstarch in a small saucepan until completely smooth. Add the remaining cherry juice and sugar and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook, whisking constantly, until thick and glossy, about 30 seconds. Pour the sauce over the cherries and gently fold to combine. Cool completely.
• For the pumpkin pie: Whisk together the pumpkin, evaporated milk, sugar, pumpkin pie spice and the egg and in a medium bowl until smooth. Set aside.
• For the pecan pie: Whisk together the brown sugar, corn syrup, butter, vanilla, eggs and a pinch of salt in a medium bowl until smooth. Fold in the pecans and set aside.
• Once all fillings are made, begin assembling the pie. Remove both baking sheets with dough from the refrigerator.
• Visualize the sheet pan is divided in half lengthwise and then crosswise so you have 4 equal quadrants. Each quadrant will hold a different pie filling. Prick the bottom crust all over with a fork.
• Add the pie fillings in this order: Add the apple pie filling to the upper left quadrant of the crust; spread it to cover a 7-by-9-inch rectangle. Moving counter clockwise, pour the pumpkin filling right under the apple pie filling and spread it the same size as the apple filling. Spread out the cherry filling next to the pumpkin filling. Fill the top right empty space with the pecan filling.
• Cover the apple pie quadrant with the reserved rectangle of dough. Lay the pie strips out diagonally over the cherry pie quadrant. Press any remaining strips of dough around the edge of the pie to thicken the rim. Crimp the edge of the pie, making sure to incorporate and crimp together the dough from the apple quadrant. Brush the edges and the dough on top of the pie with egg and sprinkle with turbinado sugar. Cut decorative slits in the apple pie crust.
• Bake until all pies are set and the crust on the apple pie and cherry pie is golden brown and crisp, 55 minutes to 1 hour 5 minutes.

LEAP DAY 4-LAYER PIE RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400˚F (200˚C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Unroll 1 tube of pizza dough and cut in half crosswise. Loosely shape into 2 8-inch (20 cm) circles, trimming off the corners if necessary. Transfer the dough rounds to the prepared baking sheet, spacing at least 1 inch (2.5 cm) apart.
• Bake the pizza dough rounds for 15 minutes, until light golden brown. Let cool completely.
• Make the garlic oil: In a liquid measuring cup or small bowl, stir together the olive oil, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, red pepper flakes, and parsley until combined. Set aside.
• Unroll 2 more tubes of pizza dough and cut both in half crosswise. Reserve 1 half for later. Cut the 3 remaining halves crosswise into 8 strips each, for a total of 24. Tie each strip into a knot and place in a large bowl.
• Pour the garlic oil over the dough knots and toss to coat completely. Set aside.
• Make the pasta bake: In a separate large bowl, mix together the ricotta, egg, marinara sauce, and Parmesan cheese until combined. Add the penne, sliced pepperoni, and mozzarella and mix until well incorporated. Set aside.
• Make the sprinkle cookie dough: In a medium bowl, mix together the sugar cookie dough and sprinkles until the sprinkles are evenly distributed. Set aside.
• Assemble the pie: Grease an 8-inch wide and 5-inch tall Dutch oven with nonstick spray.
• Arrange the dough knots evenly in the bottom of the Dutch oven. Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese over the dough.
• Unroll the remaining package of pizza dough. Cut in half crosswise. Use the dough to line the walls of the Dutch oven, letting it hang over the edge by ½ inch. Use the reserved half piece of dough to patch together any gaps. Allow the bottom edge of the dough to overlap the shredded mozzarella, so there is no gap.
• Spread the spinach-artichoke dip over the shredded cheese in an even layer. Place one of the baked dough rounds on top of the dip, trimming to fit as needed.
• Add the pasta bake mixture on top of the pizza dough round and spread in an even layer. Top with the whole pepperoni. Place the remaining baked dough round on top, trimming to fit as needed. Fold the overhanging dough over the baked dough round.

• Bake the pie for 45-50 minutes, until the cookie is golden brown around the edges.
• While the pie is baking, make the garlic butter: Combine the butter, garlic and salt in a small bowl. Microwave in 30-second intervals, until the butter is melted.
• Let the pie cool for 40 minutes. Run a knife around the edge of the Dutch oven and carefully invert the pie onto a serving platter. Brush the top of the pie with the garlic butter and sprinkle with the Parmesan cheese and parsley.
