Preparation

Chef’s notes

TIMING – If you prefer to let the pie dough chill overnight rather than just the 2 hours, prepare your apple slices on the day you’re ready to bake the pie as the apples will not hold up well overnight. Let them macerate for at least an hour, but if that doesn’t provide you with 1/4 cup of juices you can sub with apple cider.
