Easy Sheet Pan Apple Pie Recipes

APPLE SLAB PIE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425°F. Remove 2 of the pie crusts from pouches. On lightly floured surface, unroll and stack crusts one on top of the other. Roll to 18x12-inch rectangle. Fit crust into 15x10x1-inch pan, pressing firmly into corners and sides, stretching dough slightly to fit, if necessary. Do not trim pie crust edges.
• In large bowl, stir apples, sugar, flour, cinnamon, salt, nutmeg, and lemon juice until well mixed. Spoon apple mixture evenly into crust-lined pan.
• On lightly floured surface, unroll and stack remaining 2 pie crusts one on top of the other. Roll into 18x12-inch rectangle. Place on top of apples. Pinch edges of crusts together to seal, tucking extra pie crust under, if necessary. Flute or crimp edges. Cut slits in several places on top crust.
• Bake 30 to 35 minutes or until apples are tender and crust is golden brown. If necessary, loosely cover pie with foil last 10 to 15 minutes of bake time, to prevent over browning. Cool at least 2 hours before serving. Cut into 4 rows by 4 rows.

SHEET PAN SLAB PIE

Steps:

• For the pear and fig filling: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment.
• Combine the pears, fig preserves, cornstarch, cinnamon and a pinch of salt in a large bowl. Set aside.
• For the apple cranberry filling: Place a large nonstick pot over medium heat. Add the apples, frozen cranberries, sugar and a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring aggressively to burst the cranberries as they soften, about 5 minutes. Meanwhile, whisk the cranberry juice and cornstarch together in a small bowl to form a slurry. Pour the slurry into the fruit and stir to combine, then cook until a thick sauce has formed, 1 minute more. Turn off the heat and set aside.
• For the blueberry filling: Combine the blueberries, honey, cornstarch and a pinch of salt in a mixing bowl and stir to combine. Set aside.
• For the pie: On a lightly floured surface, stack 3 rounds of pie dough, then roll out to a 20-by-15-inch rectangle. Place the rectangle on one of the parchment lined baking sheets. Use scissors to trim to a 1-inch overhang on all 4 sides and save any excess dough for later use. Place in the fridge to firm up for 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, stack the remaining 3 rounds of dough, then roll out to an 18-by-13-inch rectangle. Use a pizza cutter or knife to slice the rectangle lengthwise into twelve 1-inch-wide strips. Place the strips on the remaining lined baking sheet and chill in the refrigerator for 10 minutes, or until it is time to create the lattice.
• Remove the bottom crust from the refrigerator and prick in several places with the tines of a fork. Pour the blueberry filling in one corner and spread diagonally to fill a third of the pan (the fruit layers should not have a perfect edge or stopping point). Next, pour the apple cranberry filling in the middle and spread diagonally to fill another third of the pan. Finally, pour the pear and fig filling in the remaining third of the pan.
• Using a basket weave method, create a diagonal lattice on top of the pie with the remaining dough strips: Arrange 6 strips down diagonally across the pie, leaving about 2 inches between each dough strip. Fold back every other strip and place a strip down perpendicularly. Unfold the strips over them. Repeat this process with the remaining 5 strips, alternating the strips that are lifted to create a woven pattern. Press the end of each dough strip along the rim of the baking sheet and trim off any excess. Use your fingertips or the tines of a fork to crimp the crust of the pie along the rim of the pan. Brush the lattice (but not the edges) with the beaten egg.
• Bake until the filling is bubbling and the crust is golden brown, 40 to 45 minutes. Let cool completely before slicing.

VANILLA-APPLE SHEET PAN PIE

Steps:

• Place an inverted baking sheet in the oven and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Lightly flour your work surface. Roll each round of pie dough out to a 12-inch circle. Place 1 round of dough on one side of a baking sheet, allowing about 1 inch of excess dough to hang over each side. Repeat this process with another round of dough on the long side of the baking sheet, slightly overlapping the rounds. Cut the third round of dough in half. Use the halves to cover the remainder of the baking sheet, being sure to leave about 1 inch excess dough on all sides. Prick the dough with a fork and cover with parchment paper. Use cookie cutters to cut hearts out of the fourth round of dough. Place the hearts on top of the parchment paper. Place the baking sheet with the crust and hearts in the refrigerator to chill while preparing the filling.
• To prepare the filling, place a stockpot over medium heat. Add the apples, butter, brown sugar, cardamom and salt. Cook until the sugar dissolves into the melted butter, creating a loose syrup, 5 to 7 minutes. Sprinkle in the cornstarch and bring to a simmer. Cook until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes more. Stir in the cranberry sauce and cook, stirring, until combined, about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the dried cranberries and vanilla.
• Remove the pie dough from the refrigerator. Lift off the sheet of parchment with the hearts on it and set aside. Pour the filling over the crust and spread into an even layer with a spatula. Lightly press the excess dough over the edges of the filling to create a rustic crust. Decorate the filling and crust with the hearts.
• In a small mixing bowl, whisk the egg with 1 tablespoon water. Brush the egg mixture over the crust and hearts.
• Place the pie on top of the preheated baking sheet and bake until the filling bubbles and the crust is golden brown, about 55 minutes. Allow to cool slightly before slicing.
