Einkorn Crust and Apple Pie
Ingredients
Flaky Einkorn Pie Crust
- 1 1/4 c All purpose Einkorn flour
- 1/2 t salt
- 1/2 c frozen butter*
- 1/3 c ice water
Caramel Apple Pie Filling
- 8-10 granny smith apples depending on size
- For Caramel Sauce
- 1/2 c butter
- 3 T all-purpose einkorn flour
- 1 c sucanat or preferred sweetener
- 2 t cinnamon
- 1/4 water
Instructions
Instructions for the crust
- Combine the einkorn flour and salt in a medium-sized bowl.
- Use a cheese grater or salad shooter to grate frozen butter into the flour mixture.
- Mix until the grated butter is coated with flour, then make a well in the center.
- Add ice water to the well and combine just until flour is absorbed and a dough is formed. You may have some flour left at the bottom of the bowl. Don’t overmix.
- Chill the dough covered in the fridge for 30 min-2 hours before using.
- This recipe makes enough for one 9 inch pie with a top and bottom crust.
Instructions for the filling
- Peel, core, and slice apples.
- Simmer apples in a pot with a little water for 5-7 minutes until slightly softened*.
- While the apples are softening, start on the caramel sauce.
- Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium low heat. When it is melted, whisk in the flour.
- Add the water, sucanat, and cinnamon.
- Simmer the mixture for 3-5 minutes, stirring frequently, until slightly thickened.
- Strain the juices from the apples and then combine the apples with the caramel sauce.
- Let the apple and caramel mixture cool in the refrigerator until at least room temperature. It is
- important not to rush this step, or your pie crust will melt as you assemble the pie.
- Once the filling is cool, you can use it in a pie, store it in the refrigerator for up to 4 days, or freeze it.
- Bake assembled pie at 425 F for 15 minutes, then reduce temperature to 350F and bake for another 35-45 minutes, or until filling is bubbly and crust is golden.
- This recipe makes enough filling for one 9 inch pie. I recommend baking the pie on a cookie sheet or aluminum foil to catch any juice or butter that escapes.https://www.ancientgrains.com/recipes/caramel-apple-pie-with-einkorn-crust/?mc_cid=976b2617ce&mc_eid=2fa04f8819#recipe
