Instructions

  1. Make the crust by combining flour, salt, and sugar in a food processor. Add chilled butter and pulse until crumbly. Gradually add ice water until dough forms; chill for at least an hour.

  3. Sauté sliced apples in two pans with sugar until tender but firm; let cool slightly.
  4. Combine sautéed apples with brown sugar, cornstarch, spices, butter, and vanilla extract.
  5. Assemble the pie by rolling out the dough into a deep-dish pan; fill with apple mixture and top with crumble.
  6. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for about 30 minutes uncovered then cover loosely with foil for another 30 minutes until golden brown.
  7. For the sauce, whisk brown sugar, corn syrup, butter, and salt in a skillet until bubbling; add cream.
