Americas test kitchen apple pie

We wanted mounds of tender, juicy apples in our deep-dish pie, but first we had to wade through half-baked apples, soupy fillings, and sodden crusts. Precooking the apples allowed us to cram twice as many apples in our deep-dish apple pie recipe than in our standard pie. Why didn’t they fall apart when precooked and then cooked again inside the pie? When the apples are gently heated, their pectin is converted to a heat-stable form that keeps them from becoming mushy when cooked further in…

Here's a recipe that works not only with the best fall apples but with a combination of Granny Smith and McIntosh, which are available everywhere, anytime.

A chewy caramel-coated apple on a stick is a whimsical fall orchard or county fair treat, but the combination of caramel with apples is a winning one in many dessert forms. We wanted to create a grown-up pie that brought together apples and flavorful salted caramel. Instead of stewing the fruit in a double crust, we reimagined our apple slices and used them as a fancy garnish to a caramel custard pie. We made the salted caramel filling by whisking basic custard components into homemade…

Pennsylvania Dutch Apple Pie Serves 8 to 10 The hallmark of Dutch apple pie is its creamy apple filling, but we didn’t rely on the traditional cream to…

If a slice of cheddar cheese makes apple pie even better, how good could it be if we put the cheese right into the crust? What’s better than a piece of apple pie with a slice of cheddar melted on top? One with the cheese baked right into the crust. For ample cheese flavor, we found that we had to cut back a bit on butter or the crust would crumble.
