Ingredients
- 1 pastry for a 9-inch double crust pie
- 3 tablespoons cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons white sugar, or to taste
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 5 cups apple – peeled, cored, and sliced
- ¾ cup pure maple syrup
- 1 large egg
- 1 large egg yolk
- ½ teaspoon water
Steps
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Line a 9-inch pie dish with 1 crust.
- Whisk together cornstarch, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt in a large bowl until well mixed. Stir in apples, maple syrup, and whole egg until thoroughly combined.
- Pour apple mixture into the prepared pie dish. Cover with remaining crust, seal edges, and cut away excess dough. Make several small slits in the top to allow steam to escape. Whisk together egg yolk and water in a small bowl until well combined; brush over the top of pie. Cover pie loosely with aluminum foil and place on a baking sheet.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 35 minutes. Remove the foil; continue baking until crust is golden brown, about 15 more minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
