Instructions
In a large saucepan, combine apples, 3/4 cup apple juice, sugar, cinnamon and apple pie spice; bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally.
Combine cornstarch and remaining apple juice; add to saucepan. Return to a boil, stirring constantly. Cook and stir 1 minute more or until thickened.
Remove from the heat. Stir in vanilla. Cool to room temperature, stirring occasionally.
For crust, combine flour and salt; cut in the butter until mixture is crumbly. Gradually add water, 1 tablespoon at a time; tossing with a fork until dough can be formed into a ball. Divide in half, making one half slightly larger. On a lightly floured surface, roll out larger portion.
Line a 9-in. pie plate with bottom pastry; trim even with edge of plate.
Roll out remaining pastry to fit top of pie; place over filling. Trim, seal and flute edges.
Bake at 400° for 40-45 minutes or until crust is golden brown and apples are tender. Cool on a wire rack.
Recommended wine: Prosecco, Moscato Dasti, Late Harvest Riesling
Prosecco, Moscato d'Asti, and Late Harvest Riesling are my top picks for Apple Pie. These dessert wines have the right amount of sweetness and light, fruity flavors that won't overpower apple pie. The Zonin Prosecco with a 4.5 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 12 dollars per bottle.
Zonin Prosecco
Gold Medal Winner: 2014 Los Angeles International Wine CompetitionVery well-balanced and appealing, with the extremely delicate almond note that is typical of Prosecco. An excellent aperitif, it can also be served throughout the meal - including dessert - as long as the dishes are not too strongly flavored.
