Pink Apple Pie: Gourmet Recipe

Ingredients:

1. 6 cups of thinly sliced Pink Lady apples
2. 1/2 cup granulated sugar
3. 1/2 cup brown sugar
4. 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
5. 1/4 cup unsalted butter
6. 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
7. 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
8. 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
9. 1/4 teaspoon salt
10. 1 tablespoon milk
11. 1 teaspoon turbinado sugar
12. 1 double pie crust (store-bought or homemade)

Directions:

1. Preheat the oven to 400°F.
2. In a large mixing bowl, toss the thinly sliced Pink Lady apples with granulated sugar, brown sugar, fresh lemon juice, all-purpose flour, ground cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt until well coated.
3. In a pan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter and pour it over the apple mixture. Toss everything together until the apples are evenly coated.
4. Line a 9-inch pie dish with a bottom pie crust. Pour the apple mixture into the pie crust, spreading it out to fill the dish.
5. Cover the pie with the top pie crust, pinching the edges to seal them together. Brush the top of the pie with milk and sprinkle with turbinado sugar.
6. Bake for 45-50 minutes or until the pie crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling. Allow the pie to cool on a wire rack for 30 minutes before serving.

Verdict and Serving Suggestions:

This pink apple pie is a gourmet twist on a classic dessert. The Pink Lady apples add a bright and unique flavor to the filling, while the cinnamon and nutmeg contribute a warm and comforting aroma. The turbinado sugar on top adds a crunchy texture to the flaky pie crust. This pie is best served warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream. Enjoy!
