     Old Fashioned Apple Pie

Category   Desserts - Breads
Sub Category   None
Servings   8

Ingredients
2 1/2 lbs. baking apples, peeled, cored, quarted and cut lengthwise into slices 1/2-inch thick
1/2 c. sugar, plus more as needed
1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp. freshly grated nutmeg
1 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice
2 Tbsp. unsalted butter, cut into pieces
1 egg yolk
1 Tbsp. heavy cream
2 pie crust rounds
 

Instructions
Use the basic pie dough recipe doubled for the 2 rounds. In a bowl toss together the apples, the 1/2 c. sugar (adding more to taste if the apples are tart), cinnamon, nutmeg and lemon juice. Preheat an oven to 400 degrees F. On a lightly floured work surface, roll out half of the dough (leave the other half refrigerated) into a 12-inch round about 1/8-inch thick. Fold the dough in half and then into quarters and transfer it to a 9-inch pie dish. Unfold and gently press into the bottom and sides of the dish. Trim the edges even with the rim. Roll out the remaining dough into a 10-inch round about 1/8-inch thick.
Turn the apples into the pastry-lined pan, mounding them slightly in the center. Dot evenly with the butter. Brush the edges of the dough with water. Fold the dough round into quarters and unfold over the apples. Press together the top and bottom crusts to seal, then trim the edges flush with the rim of the dish and crimp to form an attractive edge. In a small bowl, beat together the egg yolk and cream and brush over the pastry. Make a few slits near the center to allow steam to escape.
Bake for 25 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees F and continue to bake until the apples are tender (insert a knife blade through a slit) and the top is golden brown, 15-20 minutes more. Transfer the dish to a wire rack and let the pie cool for at least 20 minutes before serving.
