Classic Apple Pie with Ruths Grandmas Pie Crust

Let’s dive straight into making the most iconic dessert that screams Americana—apple pie with a crust so flaky, it’ll have you coming back for seconds.

Ingredients

• 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (I swear by King Arthur for that perfect texture)
• 1 cup unsalted butter, chilled and cubed (European-style butter is my secret for extra richness)
• 1/4 cup ice water (yes, it must be ice-cold to keep the dough tender)
• 6 cups thinly sliced Granny Smith apples (about 6 medium, tart is best for balance)
• 3/4 cup granulated sugar (adjust if your apples are sweeter)
• 1 tbsp lemon juice (freshly squeezed, no shortcuts)
• 2 tsp ground cinnamon (Saigon cinnamon adds a deeper flavor)
• 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg (a little goes a long way)
• 1 egg, beaten (for that golden shine)

Instructions

1. In a large bowl, whisk together flour and salt. Add cubed butter and use your fingers to press and smear until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
2. Drizzle in ice water, 1 tbsp at a time, mixing with a fork until the dough just comes together. Tip: Stop when you can pinch a bit and it holds.
3. Divide dough in half, flatten into discs, wrap in plastic, and chill for at least 1 hour. Cold dough equals flaky layers.
4. Preheat oven to 375°F. Roll out one dough disc on a floured surface to fit a 9-inch pie plate. Trim edges, leaving a 1-inch overhang.
5. In another bowl, toss apples with sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Pile into the crust.
6. Roll out the second dough disc, place over apples, and crimp edges to seal. Cut slits on top for steam to escape.
7. Brush top with beaten egg for a glossy finish. Bake for 50 minutes or until golden and bubbly. Tip: Place a baking sheet underneath to catch drips.
8. Let cool on a wire rack for at least 2 hours before slicing. Patience rewards you with clean slices.

Buttery, flaky crust meets tender, spiced apples in every bite. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for the ultimate contrast, or enjoy cold for breakfast—no judgment here.
