Apples: Preferably use a blend of golden delicious and granny smith.Vanilla extract: You’ll be dreaming about this vanilla flavored crumb topping.
Salt: Add this to build some flavor in the crust and a hint in the topping.Granulated sugar and brown sugar: These sugars sweeten the pie, without it it wouldn’t be much of a dessert.Preferably used unbleached over bleached for best flavor. Unbleached all-purpose flour: This is used in each layer, the crust, the filling and the topping.Ingredients for Dutch Apple Pie from Scratch: My modern Dutch apple pie obviously is not the same as that very first recipe but it is easily one of the best pies I’ve ever tasted! Every time I serve it it gets so many compliments. It also included what we would now view as an odd method: removing top pie crust partway through baking and pressing the baked pie filling through a sieve, then stirring the pie with a wooden spoon and adding cream and baking to dry. It was baked in a Dutch oven pan, made with a standard pie crust, soft apples and lots of spices. It’s just that good!Īnd the first authentic Dutch apple pie dates back to a cookbook from the year 1514 ( source). But I think it’s a timeless dessert that will stick around for many more centuries to come. Looks like this dessert has evolved quite a bit, coming in many variations around the globe. Fun History About Apple Pieĭid you know the first apple pie dates back to a recipe recorded in England in 1381 ( source)? It included apples, pears, raisins, figs and saffron. French apple pie also commonly contains raisins in the filling. While Dutch apple pie is typically covered in a sweet crumb topping or covered in a lattice, and a French apple pie comes in several variations made with an egg based cookie-like pastry dough, a puff pastry dough or a crumb topping. So what’s the difference between a Dutch, French or American style apple pie? The typical American apple pies are all flakey, butter or shortening crust based, with a crust enclosing the apple filling both above and beneath. This Dutch Apple Pie is my all-time favorite apple pie! Made with a flaky homemade pie crust, a deliciously flavorful apple pie filling and it’s finished with a sweet and buttery streusel crumb topping.
