Preparation
Step 1
How do you bake a pie with caramelized apples? Prepare all the necessary ingredients. Sour apple varieties with a thick skin work well for apple pies. Preheat the oven to 180°C / 356°F.
Step 2
How do you caramelize apples for the pie? Very simply. Cut 1 apple into slices about 5 mm / about 1/5 inch thick.
Step 3
Melt the butter in a non-stick pan.
Step 4
Place the apple slices in the pan and cook over medium heat until golden on one side, about 5–7 minutes. Then carefully turn each slice over and fry for another 5 minutes.
Step 5
Sprinkle the apples with 2 tablespoons of sugar. Reduce the heat and wait until the sugar dissolves.
Step 6
Swirl the pan in a circular motion so each slice is coated with caramel. The apples will become almost translucent, but will still hold their shape well.
Step 7
In a bowl for mixing the batter, combine the milk, eggs, and salt, then whisk. A whisk is best for this; a mixer is not suitable. Try to mix the ingredients gently to keep the texture light.
Step 8
Add the remaining sugar and whisk once more. If you like spiced baked goods, now is the time to add aromatic spices to the pie. Cinnamon, vanilla, cloves, and nutmeg will work very well.
Step 9
Sift the flour. I recommend not skipping this step. Thanks to sifting, the finished baked goods turn out fluffier and airier.
Step 10
Mix everything well. The batter will be fairly thin.
Step 11
Cut the remaining apples into thin slices as well. There is no need to peel them. If the apples are very juicy, they may release a lot of juice during baking and affect the texture of the batter. In that case, lightly sprinkle them with cornstarch, about 1 teaspoon.
Step 12
Add the apples to the batter and mix everything well.
Step 13
Prepare an ovenproof baking dish. If your dish has a non-stick coating or is silicone, you do not need to grease it. If it is a regular dish, grease it with any vegetable oil. Pour the batter with apples into the chosen dish.
Step 14
Arrange the caramelized apples beautifully on top. To keep the tops of the apples from burning, cover the top of the pie with foil. Bake the pie in an oven preheated to 180°C / 356°F for about 20 minutes. Then remove the foil and bake for about 20 more minutes. The exact time depends on your oven.
Step 15
Let the pie cool slightly and serve. Enjoy!
