How to make Apple Pie Recipe
1. Line a baking sheet with foil (this pie may bubble up and spill over a little), and preheat the oven to 400 F.
2. Combine the brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, and salt in a medium-sized bowl until well combined.
3. Place the quartered apples in a bowl and sprinkle them with lime juice to prevent browning.
4. Line a pie dish with the refrigerated pie crust.
5. Evenly distribute the quartered apples into the pie shell.
6. Sprinkle ¾ of the cinnamon/flour/sugar mixture evenly over the apples.
7. Mix the cornstarch into the heavy cream and slowly pour it evenly over the apples.
8. Cover with the remaining dry mixture and bake for 10 mins.
9. Reduce the heat to 350 F and continue baking for one hour or until the apples are tender and the juices have thickened. Let the pie cool down completely and refrigerate at least 2 hours before slicing and serving.
Can I Freeze This Apple Pie?
Yes, you can freeze this apple pie. Wait for the pie to cool down completely, wrap it tightly twice with plastic wrap and once with foil, and freeze for up to 4 months. Let it come to room temperature before serving.
Leftovers should be stored in the refrigerator because of the heavy cream.
