Instructions
Macerate Apples
Peel, core and chop apples into ¼ inch slices.
Place apples in a bowl, add one tablespoon lemon juice (to prevent browning) and toss apples.
Add 100 grams (½ cup) granulated sugar and toss until apples are coated.
Set aside for one hour.
Crumble
Combine brown sugar, flour, oatmeal, butter, cinnamon and nutmeg in a bowl. Using your hands or a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment combine ingredients until it resembles coarse pieces.
Pie
Drain macerated apples and return to original bowl. Sprinkle cornstarch, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg over apples and toss to coat apples evenly.
Using a pastry brush apply egg wash to the pie shell (bottom, top and sides of crust)
Place ½ of the apples into the pie shell.
Drizzle ½ of the caramel over the apples. Place the second ½ of the apples in the pie shell and drizzle remaining caramel over the apples.
Spread the crumble over the apples.
Place pie in refrigerator and heat oven to 350°.
Bake at 350 degrees 35 - 40 minutes. Check crust after 25 - 30 minutes of baking. If crust is becoming too brown, place a pie shield over crust (or wrap loosely in foil).
Cool completely before serving.
Enjoy!
