不過在參考過很多人的reviews以及自己本身不喜歡太甜的口味, 下面的材料與做法略有更動.

Ingredients:

  • 1 recipe pastry for a 9 inch double crust pie
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour or tapioca starch
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1/4 ~ 1/3 cup white sugar
  • 1/4 ~ 1/3 cup packed brown sugar
  • 2 tbp lemon juice
  • 2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp nutmeg
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 4 ~ 5 apples (depends on size)

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven t o 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Melt the butter in a saucepan. Stir in flour or starch to form a paste. Add water, white sugar and brown sugar, and bring to a boil. Reduce temperature and let simmer. Add lemon juice.
  2. Place the bottom crust in your pan. Mix apples with 3/4 sauce before filling, mounded slightly. Cover with a crust then brush the rest sauce on top. (Gently pour the sugar and butter liquid over the crust. Pour slowly so that it does not run off.)
  3. Reduce the temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) then baking for 45 ~ 60 minutes, until apples are soft. Turn off the oven, let the pie stay in the oven around 15 minutes.
  4. Remove the pie out of the oven and let it cool in room temperature.

這是一個super runny pie, 所以啊, 不能馬上吃, 不然在切時, 內餡會馬上流出, 把底部的派皮全弄溼弄破, 我第一次做時就是有這個慘痛的經驗, 因為食譜上和reviews裡都沒說有這個問題, 後來總算發現有一個人說, 要等六七小時, 內餡才會set, 於是只好等隔天再吃, 果然隔了一個晚上, 整個內餡總算set好了.
