Equipment

  • 1 16" x 11 ¾" Baking Pan I use a Pampered Chef stoneware pan

Ingredients
  

Apple Filling

  • 5 granny smith apples
  • 4 Honey Crisp apples
  • 1 C sugar
  • 3 Tbsp. flour
  • 1 Tbsp. cinnamon

Double Pie Crust (You’ll make this twice)

  • 2 ½ C flour
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • ½ C sugar original recipe calls for 1 Tbsp. but I add more
  • 1 tsp. ground cinnamon
  • 2 sticks butter softened
  • 4 Tbsp. ice water

Frosting

  • 2 C powdered sugar
  • 2-4 Tbsp. milk

Instructions
 

Prepare the Apple Filling

  • Peel and slice 5 Granny Smith apples and 4 Honeycrisp apples. Place the slices in a large bowl.
  • Add 1 cup sugar, 3 tablespoons flour, and 1 tablespoon cinnamon. Stir until the apples are evenly coated.
  • Set the bowl aside while you make the crusts, giving the apples a stir now and then.

Double Pie Crust (You’ll make this twice)

  • In a large bowl, whisk together the 2 1/2 cups flour, 1 teaspoon of salt, ½ cup sugar, and 1 tsp. ground cinnamon.
  • Cut in the butter with a pastry cutter until the mixture looks like pea-sized crumbs.
  • Add 2 to 4 tablespoons of ice water to start, mixing with the pastry cutter. As it begins to come together, switch to your hands and gently knead.
  • Add more water 1 tablespoon at a time until the dough holds together. (Some batches need up to 9 or 10 tablespoons.)
  • Press ithe dough into a rectangle, wrap it in parchment, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour if possible.

Assemble the Apple Slices

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F and grease your baking pan. I use a Pampered Chef Stone Bar Pan.
  • Roll out the first batch of dough to fit the bottom and sides of the pan. Press it in evenly and patch any cracks so the filling doesn’t leak.
  • Give the apples a quick stir, then roll out the second crust.
  • Pour the apple mixture into the crust-lined pan and spread it out.
  • Lay the second crust on top and seal the edges.
  • Bake for 55 to 60 minutes, or until the top is golden brown.

Add the Frosting

  • While the apple slices finish baking, whisk together 2 cups powdered (confectioners) sugar and 2–4 tablespoons milk until thick and spoonable.
  • Let the apple slices cool for 10 minutes, then drizzle the frosting over the warm top so it melts and spreads beautifully.
