Mom usually does the apple pies at Thanksgiving, but this year, I volunteered and I'm so proud of how it turned out! This recipe comes courtesy of the man, the myth, the legend himself, Chef John from FoodWishes,com. I've only made apple pie a few times--like I said, Mom usually does it--but Chef John's, by far, is one of the most delicious I've ever had. I first made it for Yule last year and it was so yummy I had to make it again this holiday season. Enjoy! Chef John's Apple Pie 6-8 apples, depending on their size (2 Fuji, 2 Braeburn or Pink Lady, 2 Granny Smith) The juice of half a lemon 1 cup white sugar, plus more for sprinkling A very tiny pinch of salt 1/8 t. nutmeg 1/2 t, cinnamon 3 T. cornstarch 2 T. butter, cut into pieces 1 egg, beaten Pie crust Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with foil and set aside. Grease a 9-inch pie dish and set aside. Peel and slice the apples. Place them in a bowl and toss with the lemon juice. Add the sugar, salt, nutmeg, and cinnamon and mix well. When the sugar's dissolved and the apples look wet, mix in the cornstarch. Set aside, Line your pie dish with the bottom crust. Pour in the filling, packing it in well. Pour over any remaining juices from the bowl and dot the filling with butter. Place on the top crust, tucking its edges down into the bottom crust. To seal, roll the bottom crust's edges over the top crust and press. Cut vents in the center of the pie. Place the pie on your prepared baking sheet. Brush with beaten egg and sprinkle nicely with sugar. Bake for one hour, checking at the 55 minute mark, until the crust is golden brown and juices are bubbling. Transfer to a wire rack to cool. #FeedingCreatively #Thanksgiving2022 #ThanksgivingBaking #HolidayBaking #FoodWishesFans #FoodWishesRecipes #ChefJohn #ChefJohnsApplePie #ClassicApplePieRecipe https://www.instagram.com/p/ClU1GTnJDi1/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
