Build it and they’ll come? is that the saying? Well, your girl is ready for fall. There I said it. Heck, I’m ready for winter! I know that sounds crazy but I love snow and hate feeling super hot – soooo, I smell fall. I have been wanting to try an olive oil curst and figured why not try an apple pie to go with it, delish! Check out the recipe below and pin it for later!
Honey Apple Pie
Ingredients
The Crust
- 3½ cup purpose flour I used Einkorn AP Flour
- 4 tsp coconut sugar
- 3 tsp baking powder
- 2 tsp sea salt
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- 3 large eggs
- 2 egg yolk
The Filling
- 5 apples
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 4 tbsp flour
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- ⅓ cup raw honey
Instructions
The Crust
- In a medium bowl, use a fork to mix the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients. Add the oil, eggs, and egg yolk into the well. Use the fork to blend the eggs and oil until well combined.
- Gradually incorporate the dry ingredients into the egg mixture, stirring until the flour is nearly fully hydrated.
- Lightly knead the dough, just until it is mostly smooth (about 3-4 times). Avoid over-kneading to prevent the oil from separating.
- Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and let it rest at room temperature for 10 to 30 minutes (see note) to allow it to fully hydrate.
- When ready to roll out, generously flour your work surface.
- Cut the dough in half and roll out the dough with a rolling pin, ensuring it doesn’t stick and you should have 2 halves, bottom and top. Transfer it to your chosen pan and leave the top open until you prepare your filling.
The Filling
- Preheat oven to 400℉
- Add your apple pieces, honey, lemon juice to a mixing bowl. Mix to combine fully.
- Add flour, cinnamon and mix well – coating the apples.
- Add the mixture to your pie pan and close it up with the top part of the dough.
- Brush the top of your pie with your egg wash (beaten egg + 1 tsp milk)
- Bake at 400℉ for 10 minutes and then reduce to 350℉ and bake for another 30 minutes or until golden brown.
