Notes

  • Butter: I use salted butter in this recipe.
  • Apples: I like to use a combination of baking apples for this recipe. Apples like Granny Smith, Pink Lady, and Honeycrisp work well. Also, I slice my apples about 1/8-inch thick.
  • Crust: You may find that you need to add a little bit of ice water to the crust to get it to the right consistency. 
  • Baking: To keep the topping from overbrowning, you can start checking it around 35 minutes in. If it starts to brown too quickly, simply tent a piece of aluminum foil over the top.
