INGREDIENTS
1 single pie crust
Filling:
3 large eggs
5 c (about 2 pounds) apples, peeled and sliced (Granny Smith works well)
2 tbsp all-purpose flour
1 c. granulated sugar, divided
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
1 3/4 c. buttermilk
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp salt
Topping:
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/3 c. brown sugar
3 tbsp chilled butter, cut into small cubes
1/3 c. all-purpose flour
How to make Apple Buttermilk Custard Pie
Step 1: Prepare the oven. Preheat it to 325 degrees F.
Step 2: Into a 14-inch circle, roll out the dough, then line a 9-inch deep dish pie pan with it. Fold the edges under and flute them using your fingers. Store in the fridge until ready to use.
Step 3: To make the filling, grease a large nonstick skillet using cooking spray. Add the apples with 1/4 c sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Cook over medium heat for about 10 minutes or until the apples are tender, stirring often. Into the prepared crust, spoon the apple mixture.
Step 4: Place the rest of the flour, flour, salt, eggs, buttermilk, and vanilla in a medium bowl. Mix well until blended, then pour this over the apple mixture.
Step 5: Place in the preheated oven and bake for about 30 minutes.
Step 6: In the meantime, combine 1/3 c flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon to make the topping. With a pastry blender or two knives, cut the butter until you have a crumbly mixture.
Step 7: Remove the pie from the oven, then adjust the oven temperature to 300 degrees F. Over the pie, sprinkle the streusel topping. Return the pie to the oven and resume baking for another 40 minutes or until set.
Step 8: Take the pie out of the oven when done and allow it to cool for about an hour before slicing. Enjoy!
