Honey Apple Pie Recipes

Steps:

• Fill a pastry lined 9" pie plate with sliced apples, pour over them the 3/4 cup honey and sprinkle with 1 Tsp.
• each cinnamon and vanilla.
• Dot with small pieces of the 2 Tbls.
• butter, cover with slashed top crust.
• Bake at 400 degrees for 35 minutes or until apples are tender.

Steps:

• Make the crust: Whisk the flour, sugar and salt in a medium bowl. Add the butter and work it into the flour with your fingers until it is in small bean-size pieces. Drizzle in 3 tablespoons ice water and the vinegar and stir to moisten. Gradually add up to 2 more tablespoons ice water until the dough holds together when squeezed. Transfer to a sheet of plastic wrap, gather into a disk and wrap tightly. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
• Meanwhile, prepare the filling: Peel and chop the apples. Put half of the apples in a blender with 1 cup water and puree until smooth. Gradually add the remaining apples and blend until smooth, adding more water 1/4 cup at a time as needed.
• Pour the apple mixture into a large nonstick skillet and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Reduce the heat to medium low and simmer, stirring, until very thick and reduced to about 1 1/2 cups, 1 hour 15 minutes to 1 1/2 hours. Let cool.
• Preheat the oven to 400˚ F. Roll out the pie dough on a lightly floured surface into a 12-inch round. Ease into a 9-inch pie plate. Fold the overhanging dough under itself and crimp the edge. Prick the bottom and sides of the crust with a fork and refrigerate until firm, about 20 minutes. Line the crust with parchment paper or foil and fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake until the edges of the crust are dry and lightly browned, 15 to 20 minutes. Carefully remove the weights and paper and continue to bake until the bottom of the crust is dry and just starting to brown, 10 to 15 minutes. Transfer to a rack to cool. Reduce the oven temperature to 350˚ F.
• Return the apple mixture to the blender along with 1/2 cup honey and the sugar; puree until combined. Add 3/4 cup heavy cream, the eggs, vanilla and salt and pulse until just combined.
• Pour the mixture into the crust and bake until the filling is puffed and dry to the touch, 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes (tent the crust with foil if it is getting too dark). Turn off the oven and let the pie sit inside with the door cracked open, 5 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a rack to cool completely.
• Make the topping: Beat the remaining 3/4 cup heavy cream and 2 teaspoons honey in a large bowl with a mixer until medium peaks form, 2 to 3 minutes. Spread on the pie.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Slice Golden Delicious apples and 3 Granny Smith apples into sixths.
• In a large skillet over medium-high heat, bring 1/4 cup honey to a boil. Let simmer about 2 minutes, until honey is caramelized. Add 3 thyme branches. Arrange half the apples in a single layer in skillet. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons butter over apples. Cook apples, turning, until well caramelized on all sides (but not cooked through), about 10 minutes. Scrape apples and honey mixture into a bowl. Add tapioca and toss to combine. Repeat cooking process with remaining honey, thyme, butter and sliced apples. Add second batch of apples to bowl; combine. Discard all thyme branches.
• Thinly slice remaining Granny Smith apple and add it to bowl. Stir in sugar, ginger and salt.
• On a lightly floured surface, roll out both crusts to 12-inch circles. Place one crust in 9-inch pie plate. Scrape apple filling into crust and top with remaining crust. Pinch edges to seal. With a knife, slice 4 vents in top of crust. Place pie on a foil-lined, rimmed baking sheet.
• Bake for 15 minutes; reduce heat to 350 degrees and continue baking until crust is dark golden and apples are tender when pricked with a fork, about 45 minutes more. Let cool for 30 minutes before slicing.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Wash peel core and slice apples into thin slices. This is basice Apple Pie recipe. I did a bit of research to learn about these delicious tasting apples, and found they are considered an all purpose apple, so they worked great in my pie, and are great in cakes as well.
• 2. Add apples to a large bowl. Then combine sugar and spices with flour in a separate bowl and stir to blend together.
• 3. Pour sugar mixture over apples, and stir to blend in then sprinkle with the lemon juice and stir till thoroughly mixed together.
• 4. Unroll pie crust and position into a 9 inch glass pie plate. Press down to conform to pie dish.
• 5. Fill pie crust with sliced apple mixture. Then top with second crust. Tuck the edge of top crust to the bottom edge of the base crust then crump together.
• 6. Now brush top of crust with evaporated milk or an egg wash. Make 5 or 6 slits in top of crust so steam can escape during cooking. Then sprinkle top with decorators sugar.
• 7. Place pie plate on a shallow baking sheet to catch any potential drips during baking. Then place in preheated 425 degree oven and bake for 20 minutes. After 20 minutes, you may want to cover the edge of pie with aluminum foil to prevent over browning of the edges. Then continue baking for an additional 30 minutes, or until top crust is golden brown.
• 8. Remove pie from oven and allow pie to cool for at least a few hours before cutting. Serve plain as is or with your favorite ice cream.

Steps:

• Move oven rack to lowest position. Heat oven to 400°F. In large bowl, mix apples, 1/3 cup honey, the flour and cinnamon, tossing to coat.
• Place 1 pie crust in 9 1/2-inch glass deep-dish pie plate as directed on box. Spoon apple mixture into crust, mounding in center. Top with second crust; seal edges and flute. Cut 4 slits in top crust to allow steam to escape. Place pie plate on cookie sheet.
• Bake on lowest oven rack 55 to 60 minutes or until crust is golden brown and filling is bubbly. Brush with 2 tablespoons honey. Cool completely on cooling rack, about 4 hours.

Steps:

• Make the crust: Combine flour, sugar and kosher salt in a large bowl, and use your hands to mix well.
• Add the butter to the bowl, and use your palms and fingertips to smash the pieces into the flour until you've got large, flat butter pieces that are evenly distributed among the flour. Pop the bowl into the freezer for 5 or so minutes.
• Combine vinegar and 1/3 cup water, and drizzle over the flour-butter mixture. Like you're running your hands through sand, deliberately yet delicately mix the water into the flour/butter mixture. Resist the urge to add more water until you see that it's absolutely necessary, and even then, use only an additional tablespoon or two.
• Turn the dough out onto a work surface, and use your palms to knead it lightly until the shaggy ball transforms into a slightly-less shaggy ball of dough. (It should still be relatively shaggy.) Pat the dough into a disc about 1 inch thick, rotating it to create a nice circle. Wrap in plastic or place in a resealable plastic bag and chill until firm, at least 2 hours.
• Heat the oven to 375 degrees. Remove dough from refrigerator, and let it soften slightly at room temperature, about 10 minutes or so.
• As dough rests, make the filling: Combine apples, honey, 1/2 cup sugar, the flour, the vinegar and the cinnamon in a large bowl. Toss the ingredients so every slice of apple is evenly coated.
• On a lightly floured work surface, roll the dough into a circle about 18 inches in diameter. Transfer dough to a lightly greased 9-inch springform pan, or a 9-inch deep-dish pie plate, letting it slump to meet the bottom of the pan and letting the overhang remain.
• Transfer the apple mixture and any juices that have accumulated to the crust. Drape the excess dough over the filling, covering the apples by about 1 1/2 to 2 inches. (Feel free to trim any dough that feels truly excessive.)
• Whisk the egg with a teaspoon of water and use it to brush the exposed crust. Sprinkle with sesame seeds, if using, the remaining 2 tablespoons of sugar and a little flaky salt.
• Place galette on a rimmed baking sheet (for easy cleanup should anything bubble over) and bake until the crust is deeply golden brown (about the color of a well-baked croissant), the apples are tender, and the juices are bubbling and thickened, 65 to 75 minutes.
• Remove galette from the oven and let cool completely (at least 2 hours) before slicing and eating, preferably with lots of ice cream.

Steps:

• Spread apple slices over pie shell.
• Combine eggs, yogurt, cinnamon, salt and honey to make a custard mixture.
• Pour the custard mixture over the spples.
• Sprinkle with walnuts.
• Bake 45 minutes at 375 degree.
• Cool to room tempeture before cutting.
