Skillet Apple Pie With Cinnamon Whipped Cream Recipes

CHEESY APPLE SKILLET PIE

Steps:

• For the pie: Place a baking sheet in the oven and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Warm a medium saute pan over medium heat and melt the butter. Add the apple slices, cinnamon and nutmeg and cook until slightly softened, about 4 minutes. Pour apples into a large bowl and cool in the fridge, about 5 minutes.
• For the streusel topping: Meanwhile, fill a gallon resealable plastic bag with the cheese crackers and use a rolling pin to crush into small crumbs, but not a fine powder. Add to a medium bowl with the light brown sugar and salt and stir to combined. Stir melted butter into the mixture, tossing to bind your streusel, and set aside for pie assembly.
• Back to the pie: Remove the apples from the fridge and stir in the light brown sugar, Cheddar, cornstarch and salt.
• Fit the pie dough into a 10-inch cast-iron skillet. Gently press the dough against the sides of the skillet to form the bottom crust of the pie. (The crust will not reach the top edge of skillet and this is just fine.) Pour the apples into the skillet. Generously sprinkle the streusel on top of the apples and spread in an even layer.
• Bake the pie on the preheated baking sheet until golden brown and bubbly, 45 to 50 minutes. Allow the pie to cool about 45 minutes before serving.
• For the lemon maple sage whipped cream: Meanwhile, zest the entire lemon into a medium bowl. Gather sage leaves together in a tight bundle and grate the bundle into the bowl with the zest (it's okay if a few larger pieces fall in). Add the heavy cream, maple syrup and salt and stir together until combined. Strain mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Use a rubber spatula to press on the lemon and sage mixture in the sieve, to get out all the possible flavor. Beat the cream until it holds medium peaks and serve a dollop on each pie slice.

APPLE PIE WITH CHEDDAR AND MAPLE WHIPPED CREAM

Steps:

• For the crust: Pulse the flour, granulated sugar and salt together in a food processor to combine. Add the 5 ounces Cheddar and pulse, then add the butter and pulse until it creates a coarse meal with some larger butter lumps. Add water a tablespoon at a time (no more than 1/2 cup) while processing just until the dough comes together. Turn out onto a piece of plastic wrap and form into a disc. Refrigerate while making the filling.
• For the filling: Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Stir together the apples, brown sugar, flour, butter, bourbon, maple syrup, lemon juice, cinnamon, pepper, salt, cloves and nutmeg in a large bowl.
• Roll out the dough, using additional flour as needed, into a circle large enough to drape into a 10-inch pie plate or cast-iron skillet. Cover with the filling. Bake for 10 to 15 minutes, then lower oven to 350 degrees F and bake for 30 minutes more. Sprinkle on the remaining 6 ounces Cheddar to the top of the pie and bake until browned and melted, 15 minutes. Let cool until cheese hardens.
• For the whipped cream: Beat together the cream, syrup and granulated sugar until firm.
• Serve the pie with the whipped cream.

SKILLET APPLES WITH CINNAMON

Steps:

• Melt butter in a large, heavy skillet over medium heat. Saute apples, brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg in hot butter until tender and golden, 10 to 15 minutes.

IRON SKILLET APPLE PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place butter in a large iron skillet and place in preheating oven until melted, about 5 minutes.
• Stir brown sugar into melted butter and place back in oven until bubbling, about 5 minutes.
• Gently lay 1 pie crust on top of butter-brown sugar mixture, without pressing crust down. Arrange apple slices on top of pie crust.
• Mix white sugar, cinnamon, and flour together in a bowl; sprinkle over apple slices. Place the remaining pie crust over apple slices, making slits in the top crust for ventilation. Seal the 2 crusts together.
• Bake in the preheated oven until top crust is lightly browned, about 45 minutes.
