Equipment

  • Large bowl
  • Pie pan

Ingredients
  

Pie Crust

  • ½ cup all-purpose flour – 62.5 grams
  • 1 cup whole wheat flour – 120 grams
  • ⅓ cup water – at room temperature adjust as needed
  • ¼ cup olive oil or sunflower oil
  • ½ teaspoon salt – or to taste
  • 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup new ingredient for added richness

Apple Pie Filling

  • 2 tablespoons whole wheat flour
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice new ingredient to enhance apple flavor and balance sweetness
  • 2 medium apples – peeled cored, and thinly sliced
  • ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg or freshly grated nutmeg
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoons demerara sugar alternatively, brown sugar, raw sugar, or white sugar
  • 1 to 2 teaspoons oil or vegan butter – to lightly coat the filling

Other Ingredients

  • 2 to 3 teaspoons soy milk or any nut milk – for a glossy finish
  • 1 to 2 pinches raw sugar or brown sugar – for a hint of sweetness on top
  • 1 to 2 pinches ground cinnamon – for a light dusting

Instructions
 

Step 1: Preparing the Crust

  • Begin by mixing all-purpose flour and whole wheat flour in a large bowl. Slowly add the oil, then stir in the water, salt, and honey or maple syrup. Blend everything together until you form a dough.
  • Tip: If your dough is a bit dry, add a few drops of water. If too sticky, a tad more flour will help.

Step 2: Rolling Out the Dough

  • Dust your surface with flour, then roll out the dough to fit your pie pan. Make sure it’s evenly spread, about ⅛ inch thick. Transfer it to your pie dish and gently press it down, trimming any excess dough.

Step 3: Preparing the Filling

  • In another bowl, mix the sliced apples with lemon juice, flour, nutmeg, cinnamon, and demerara sugar. Toss everything until the apples are well-coated.

Step 4: Filling the Pie

  • Place the apple mixture in the prepared crust, spreading it out evenly. Drizzle with oil or vegan butter. This adds moistness and a buttery flavor.

Step 5: Top Crust

  • Roll out the remaining dough. You can create a lattice top or cover it entirely. If covering completely, cut small slits for steam to escape.

Step 6: Final Touches

  • Brush the top crust with soy or nut milk for a shiny finish. Dust lightly with raw sugar and ground cinnamon.

Step 7: Baking the Pie

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake the pie for 40-45 minutes, until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.

Step 8: Cooling and Serving

  • Allow the pie to cool slightly before serving. This helps the filling set and makes slicing easier.

Notes

Here are some tips to ensure your pie turns out perfect every time:
  • Cold Ingredients: Keep your water and oil cold for a flakier crust.
  • Consistent Slices: Thin, even apple slices cook more uniformly.
  • Adjust Sweetness: Depending on the apples’ natural sweetness, you might need more or less sugar.
  • Chill the Dough: Letting the dough rest in the fridge for about 15-30 minutes can yield a flakier crust.
  • Prevent Browning: Cover the edges of your pie with foil if they begin to brown too quickly.
