Apple-Honey Pie Popular Ingredients

• 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
• 2 teaspoons sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 stick cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
• 3 to 5 tablespoons ice water
• 2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
• 6 assorted apples, such as Golden Delicious, Fuji and Honeycrisp (1 3/4 to 2 pounds)
• 1 to 1 3/4 cups water
• 1/2 cup plus 2 teaspoons buckwheat honey
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 1 1/2 cups heavy cream
• 2 large eggs, lightly beaten
• 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
• 1/4 teaspoon salt

Steps for making Apple-Honey Pie

1. Make the crust: Whisk the flour, sugar and salt in a medium bowl. Add the butter and work it into the flour with your fingers until it is in small bean-size pieces. Drizzle in 3 tablespoons ice water and the vinegar and stir to moisten. Gradually add up to 2 more tablespoons ice water until the dough holds together when squeezed. Transfer to a sheet of plastic wrap, gather into a disk and wrap tightly. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
2. Meanwhile, prepare the filling: Peel and chop the apples. Put half of the apples in a blender with 1 cup water and puree until smooth. Gradually add the remaining apples and blend until smooth, adding more water 1/4 cup at a time as needed.
3. Pour the apple mixture into a large nonstick skillet and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Reduce the heat to medium low and simmer, stirring, until very thick and reduced to about 1 1/2 cups, 1 hour 15 minutes to 1 1/2 hours. Let cool.
4. Preheat the oven to 400˚ F. Roll out the pie dough on a lightly floured surface into a 12-inch round. Ease into a 9-inch pie plate. Fold the overhanging dough under itself and crimp the edge. Prick the bottom and sides of the crust with a fork and refrigerate until firm, about 20 minutes. Line the crust with parchment paper or foil and fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake until the edges of the crust are dry and lightly browned, 15 to 20 minutes. Carefully remove the weights and paper and continue to bake until the bottom of the crust is dry and just starting to brown, 10 to 15 minutes. Transfer to a rack to cool. Reduce the oven temperature to 350˚ F.
5. Return the apple mixture to the blender along with 1/2 cup honey and the sugar; puree until combined. Add 3/4 cup heavy cream, the eggs, vanilla and salt and pulse until just combined.
6. Pour the mixture into the crust and bake until the filling is puffed and dry to the touch, 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes (tent the crust with foil if it is getting too dark). Turn off the oven and let the pie sit inside with the door cracked open, 5 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a rack to cool completely.
7. Make the topping: Beat the remaining 3/4 cup heavy cream and 2 teaspoons honey in a large bowl with a mixer until medium peaks form, 2 to 3 minutes. Spread on the pie.

• Fruit – In botany, a fruit is the seed-bearing structure in flowering plants that is formed from the ovary after flowering.Fruits are the means by which flowering plants (also known as angiosperms) disseminate their seeds. Edible fruits in particular have long propagated using the movements of humans and animals in a symbiotic relationship that is the means for seed dispersal for the one group and nutrition for the other; in fact, humans and many animals have become dependent on fruits as a source of food. Consequently, fruits account for a substantial fraction of the world’s agricultural output, and some (such as the apple and the pomegranate) have acquired extensive cultural and symbolic meanings.In common language usage, “fruit” normally means the fleshy seed-associated structures (or produce) of plants that typically are sweet or sour and edible in the raw state, such as apples, bananas, grapes, lemons, oranges, and strawberries. In botanical usage, the term “fruit” also includes many structures that are not commonly called “fruits”, such as nuts, bean pods, corn kernels, tomatoes, and wheat grains.

• Dessert – Dessert (/dɪˈzɜːrt/) is a course that concludes a meal. The course consists of sweet foods, such as confections, and possibly a beverage such as dessert wine and liqueur. In some parts of the world, such as much of Central Africa and West Africa, and most parts of China, there is no tradition of a dessert course to conclude a meal.The term dessert can apply to many confections, such as biscuits, cakes, cookies, custards, gelatins, ice creams, pastries, pies, puddings, macaroons, sweet soups, tarts and fruit salad. Fruit is also commonly found in dessert courses because of its naturally occurring sweetness. Some cultures sweeten foods that are more commonly savory to create desserts.
