I miss Cortland apples. I live on the west coast and we don't get them here.
The original Perfect Apple Pie Recipe you had to bake the apples in the oven. Take them out - add cornstarch and then put them in the freezer for 15 min and then fill the pastry. What happened to that recipe?? I just made it last week . But when I went on your website today it was a different recipe. Please help. I know I' not mistaken because I sent recipe to a friend and the sam thing happened to her.
What do you do with the lemon and the cornstarch?
Preheat oven to 425°. Peel and core apples, slice them 1/4 inch thick, and put in a clean bowl. Toss to coat with lemon juice.
In a separate bowl, combine sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cornstarch,
Hi, Amy. Toss the peeled apples with lemon juice. The cornstarch goes in the sugar mixture. Enjoy!
The only change I made is that I brush cream/milk over the top and sprinkle with sugar rather than use egg.
I made this pie with all Cortland apples and it was delicious! I’ve never had the apple pie/cheddar cheese combo before but it was great. Wonderful way to use the apples we just picked at the orchard!
Forgot to mention, idea to serve the pie with cheese came from the Vermont cheddar apple pie recipe on this site.
It works!
