Ingredients

  • 2 pie crusts*
  • 5-6 large apples pealed and cut into 1" cubes
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1/2 cup Bob's Red Mill gluten free baking flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter chilled and cut into pea size
  • 1 tablespoon water
  • 1 egg white raw

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350.  Peel all the apples and cut them into 1" cubes.  Put them all in the large bowl.
  2. Pour the lemon juice and vanilla over the apples.  Stir gently.
  3. Mix the cinnamon and sugar together and pour them over the apples.  Stir to coat.  Sprinkle apples with the salt.
  4. Remove all thyme leaves from their stems.  Mix the thyme with the flour.  Sprinkle the 1/2 of the flour/thyme mixture evenly over the apples and stir to coat.  Then sprinkle the rest evenly over the apples and stir again.
  5. Put 1 uncooked pie crust over your pie dish.  Pour the apples into the pie shell.  There should be plenty to pile them up high!  Dot the apples with the chilled butter.  Then gently place the other pie crust dough over the apple mound.
  6. Press the two pie dough edges with your fingers to seal them together.  Cut 4 slits in the top of the pie with your knife.  
  7. Mix 1 tablespoon water and 1 egg white together in a small bowl.  With a pastry brush, lightly coat the pie crust with the egg wash.  
  8. Put the pie dish on a cookie sheet.  Bake for 45 minutes.  Cool completely before serving.
