Ingredients

Servings

• 1.5 cup All-purpose flour
• 2 cup Granulated sugar
• ¹⁄₄ teaspoon Salt
• ¹⁄₂ cup Unsalted butter (cold)
• 3 tablespoon Ice water
• 4 medium Apples (peeled, cored, and sliced)
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• ¹⁄₂ teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
• 1 large Egg (beaten)
• 1 tablespoon Turbinado sugar (for sprinkling)

Instructions

1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, and salt. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
2. Gradually add ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, and mix until the dough comes together. Shape the dough into a disk, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
3. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough into a circle about 12 inches in diameter.
4. Transfer the rolled-out dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
5. In a separate bowl, toss the sliced apples with lemon juice, cinnamon, and cornstarch. Arrange the apple slices in the center of the rolled-out dough, leaving a border around the edges.
6. Fold the edges of the dough over the apples, pleating as necessary. Brush the edges of the dough with beaten egg and sprinkle turbinado sugar on top.
7. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the apples are tender.
8. Remove from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature.
