Ingredients
Instructions
-
Prepare the Dough
In a mixing bowl, sift the all-purpose flour and mix it with salt. Cut the softened butter into small cubes and add it to the flour. Use your fingers to rub the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs. Gradually add the cold water and knead the dough until it comes together.
-
Chill the Dough
Divide the dough into two equal parts. Wrap one part in plastic wrap and refrigerate it for 30 minutes. Roll out the other part into a thin sheet on a lightly floured surface.
-
Prepare the Pie Crust
Смажьте сливочным маслом форму для пирога и выложите в нее раскатанное тесто, сформировав края. Поставьте форму с тестом в холодильник.
-
Prepare the Apple Filling
Peel, core, and dice the apples into small cubes. In a bowl, combine the diced apples, white and brown sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, and salt. Mix everything well to ensure the spices and sugar are evenly distributed.
-
Assemble the Pie
Remove the pie dish from the refrigerator and evenly spread the apple filling over the dough. Take the remaining dough from the refrigerator and cut it into strips. Arrange the strips in a lattice pattern over the apple filling.
-
Preheat the Oven
Start by preheating your oven to 200 degrees Celsius (392 degrees Fahrenheit).
-
Brush with Egg Wash
In a small bowl, beat the egg with milk. Brush the egg wash over the lattice crust to give it a golden color.
-
Bake the Pie
Place the pie dish in the preheated oven and bake at 200 degrees Celsius (392 degrees Fahrenheit) for 15 minutes. Then reduce the temperature to 180 degrees Celsius (356 degrees Fahrenheit) and bake for an additional 45 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the apples are tender.

Serve and Enjoy
Once baked, remove the pie from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Slice and serve the delectable open apple pie. It's best enjoyed warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
