Allamericanapplepiespread Recipes

Steps:

• In small mixing bowl, beat cream cheese and juice on medium speed until fluffy.
• Beat in brown sugar and apple pie spice or cinnamon.
• Stir in apple and pecans.
• Garnish as desired.
• Serve with crackers.

Steps:

• Preheat oven 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Spray deep dish pie plate with cooking spray
• Combine white sugar, light brown sugar, flour, lemon, cinnamon, and mix well. Add apples and raisins to sugar mixture; stir until fruit is well coated.
• Spoon apple mixture into pie crust. Place second piecrust on top of filling, and trim edges. Lightly glaze top of pie with a beaten egg, then sprinkled with a little sugar.
• Bake till golden brown, about 35 to 40 minutes. Place on a wire rack, and cool 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• FILLING: peel, core, and slice apples. In a large bowl, toss apples with sugar, flour and cinnamon. Pour into unbaked pie crust; dot with butter. Cover with top crust; seal and flute edge. Brush with egg white. Cut slits for steam to escape.
• Roll additional crust to 1/8-inch thickness. With small 1 1/2-inch star cookie cutter, cut 20-25 stars. Place 1 star on rim of top crust, brush with egg glaze. Repeat until rim is covered.
• In a small bowl, combine cinnamon and sugar; sprinkle over crust. Bake for 30-40 minutes, until pie is golden brown and apples are tender.

Steps:

• For the Crust: Blend flour, sugar and salt in a food processor.
• Add butter and shortening and cut in, until mixture resembles coarse meal.
• Add 6 tablespoons ice water and process until clumps form, adding more water by teaspoonfuls if dough is dry (I never need more than 6 tablespoons).
• Gather into ball; divide into 2 pieces.
• Flatten each into a disk. Wrap each in plastic; chill at least 2 hours. Can be made a day ahead.
• For the filling: Position oven rack in lowest rack of oven and preheat to 400°F
• Mix all of the filling ingredients except apples in large bowl. It should be very dry and clumpy -- not really a 'sauce' at all.
• Add apples and coat.
• To assemble: Flour a sheet of parchment paper; roll out 1 dough onto paper until it is a 12-inch round.
• Transfer to 9-inch-diameter glass pie dish by flipping the paper over, then gently pressing so that the dough is along the bottom of the pie dish. There should be an overhang all the way around.
• Add filling.
• Roll out second dough to 13-inch round. Cut into twelve 1-inch wide strips. Arrange 6 strips across pie, leaving gaps between the filling and the lattuce along the way (that will make weaving the others easier).
• Form lattice by arranging 6 strips across the first strips, taking care as you go. If one breaks, don't worry--just tuck the break underneath!
• Gently fold over the edges onto the lattice, pressing with a fork to seal.
• Brush lattice with milk, and sprinkle lightly with additional sugar.
• Cover edges with foil and bake pie 10 minutes.
• Without opening the oven (I know, its so hard to resist!), reduce oven temperature to 375°F
• Continue baking until juices are thickened and crust is golden, about 1 hour 10 minutes.
• Allow to cool for at least one hour before eating.
