The culinary middle ground between a classic pie and a crumble
In short: If you are torn between the structure of a traditional apple pie and the rustic texture of a crumble, this recipe offers a hybrid solution. The video demonstrates how to create a layered dessert that balances a firm crust with a generous topping.
The recipe utilizes a dual-dough technique to achieve its unique texture. First, a base dough is created by pulsing flour, sugar, and frozen cubed butter with ice water until it forms a ball, which is then refrigerated for at least one hour. This provides the foundation for the fruit filling.
The topping is distinct from the base: a separate mixture of flour, sugar, and frozen butter is pulsed into a crumbly consistency. These apples are tossed in a blend of sugar, cinnamon, and instant tapioca before being placed in a 9½ inch deep dish pie crust. The dish is baked at 400ºF (200ºC) for approximately 40 minutes until the fruit softens and the top browns.
