Best Apple Pie I ever made!

Used a mix of Envy, Fuji, Pacific Rose, Honeycrisp and Granny Smith. I dug in the freezer for lemon zest and couldn't find it then looked outside: lo and behold, my meyer lemon tree ripened overnight - that flavor really popped the apples. Plus, the crust came out beyond perfect.

Used the All American, All Delicious Apple Pie by Dorie Greenspan in T&T. It's my go to apple pie recipe, but this time I left the crust very dry/still very crumby when I chilled it. When rolling it out I used damp hands to get in the least amount of water to hold it together. This left large chunks of butter in the dough resulting in the most flaky crust yet.

I served it still warm from the oven at our neighborhood TG we had yesterday, with ice cream, but it came out so good adding ice cream might be a crime. smileys/smile.gif

Very, very nice ! I have always loved a mix of apples for my pies. . .

I think you get so much more depth of flavor.

And ain't it great when the crusts come out perfect?!! I love it when it all clicksl smileys/smile.gif
