Which apples make the best apple pie?

Of all the apples on the market, my favorites for baking are Jonagold, Honeycrisp, Pink Lady, Braeburn, and Granny Smith apples.

Rich in flavor and consistency. You want an apple that will not turn into mush or give you so much juice that your pie will be soggy.

Even though I clean all my apples well to remove all wax and dust from the skin, I always peel them.

Making the custard

The custard is my favorite part and is so easy to make. Eggs and heavy cream are essential as they make the custard rich.

Brown sugar and vanilla extract give it that wonderful, sweet flavor.

Use a good quality vanilla extract. My favorite is from Madagascar. Perfectly balanced.

Step-by-step instructions on how to make this recipe to perfection

As you can see by the ingredients needed this strawberry apple pie recipe is super easy to prepare.

• Of course, you are welcome to make your dough; however, using an already-made pastry crust can save you some time. I use Pillsbury, but any that are your favorite will do as well.
• Roll the pie dough on a floured surface.
• Always poke lightly at the pastry dough and bake it for at least 8 minutes. Place a pie ring around it to prevent the outer crust from burning. If you do not have one, use aluminum foil to protect the top crust.
• Use strawberries that are not too white at the end tip and not too soft either.
• Mix the apple slices with the strawberries before placing them into the pre-baked pastry dough.
• Pour the cream mixture over it.
• All ovens bake differently. To know if your pie is ready, check that the middle of the custard is done by shaking the pan lightly. If there is no movement, then it is done.
• My timing on the recipe card is based upon a regular, very old electric oven.

Once out of the oven, place on a trivet or cookie rack and bring to room temperature before enjoying it.

If you have a removable bottom pie dish, you can serve your plate on a beautiful pedestal pie plate. A regular plate will work too.

Storing

Onve the pie is completely cooled off, it can store in the refrigerator for up to three days. Cover it tightly with plastic wrap.

I do not recommend placing it in the freezer as the fruits and custard will not taste the same afterwards.

If you are familiar with my Apple pie, you will love this new recipe. And do not forget, a huge scoop of vanilla ice cream tastes amazing with this pie.
