Ingredients
Method
Techniques
  • 2 whole gala apples
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 4 tbsp cold diced butter
  • 4 tbsp cold water
  • ¼ cup sugar
  • 2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 2 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 2 tbsp cornstarch
  • 4 tbsp cold water
  • 3 tbsp dark rum
Peel the gala apples and slice them fairly thin, so they cook at the same rate as the dough; cover with a damp cloth so they do not brown.
  • salt
In a bowl, lightly mix salt, all-purpose flour, cold diced butter and cold water for three to five minutes, until the butter and flour form little doughy flakes.
Flaky pie dough
Roll the dough out on a dry countertop to about an eighth of an inch thick and cut two rounds, top and bottom, a little larger than the pie tin.
Mix the sugar, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, cornstarch, cold water and dark rum into the rum spice syrup.
Rum spice syrup
Line the tin with the bottom round, fan the apple slices out evenly, and pour in spiced syrup to fill the pan about halfway up.
Cover with the second round and pinch the edges to seal; cut a few slits in the top and egg wash it.
  • egg wash
Bake at about 350 degrees for 30 minutes.
  • sweet whipped cream
Rest about 10 minutes, take the pie out of the tin, plate it and top with sweet whipped cream.
