@@KingArthurBakingCompany I think so! I've been thinking about pies for a while now. I've never done one because I'm scared of the crust. But, last week Claire taught me how to braid a 6 strand loaf that turned out GREAT, so maybe she can teach me pie crust too. ;)

My husband and I adore Claire and have been watching her channel and collaboration video for a few years now. I've just treated our household with this homemade pie (with video as well as book guidance). I would love to post some of my side by side photos but can't seem to do that.. ohh well! The pie is beautiful! Thanks so much everyone! ❤
I love love love this pie dough recipe, it's so easy. Although I find how much water I need greatly fluctuates. In the winter it's usually closer to a cup and in the summer it's closer to 2/3
We're glad you're enjoying it! That's a fair assessment, it's very common for flour to need more liquid to hydrate in the drier months because there's less ambient moisture in the air for it to absorb. Happy baking! -👩🍳Morgan
Congratulations Claire 🥰 🙏🏼. I saw you today on GMA you did great . I wish The Food Network would offer you a spot. I was watching some of your old videos with Brad Leone and Oh my word a total Lucian ball and Ricky Brad being Lucy😜. You guys are a total hit together. Food network if you’re watching this post please consider it.
Made this pie for Thanksgiving and oh my goodness! The crust was unbelievably flaky and you could see all the layers of lamination. I used the other KAF filling (with their Boiled Cider) and it was the BEST apple pie I've ever made!
What bake temperature and time did you follow? The one on this recipe or the one in the boiled cider? I want to do what you did but not sure which one to follow.
KA and Claire together!!! Gah it's too much! and like two days after my copy of Whats For Dessert arrived. (any child of the 70s will be hit right in the feels by that book. I mean I was STUNNED.)
I always wonder why people think making pie dough from scratch is difficult. Now I know 😂. Even though this technique will add a few steps to my usual method, I’ll certainly be trying it out next week. Happy Thanksgiving!
Whoa ... Clair and King Arthur together AND a dessert cookbook. Sure works for me. Your taster sure looked a lot like Babish. Caught me off guard. Nice video. Good directions.
For those having trouble hearing the quantities, here are my notes: 450 grams flour, 2T sugar, 1/2-1t salt (couldn’t hear this well), 2.5 sticks butter (20 T), 158 grams water
Hi, Bianca! Is it the first liquid she adds to the filling? If so, that is, "1 tablespoon orange bitters or Angostura bitters" from her recipe. Was that what you were looking for? 🍎 -🥐Lily
I thought she said angostura, but after rewinding three times I still wasn’t sure. I enabled close captioning, and was then able to read it on the subtitle.

Always love Claire content! The only thing that threw me off was the lack of rock/drums sound Vinny usually adds as she whacked the dough with her rolling pin :) happy Thanksgiving!
Love Claire and KAF but this video is UNWATCHABLE. What happened with the audio? I had to turn it up SO MUCH and still can barely hear it - and nearly blew out my speakers during one of the (I can only assume many) ad-breaks. Did no one review the final cut before it was uploaded?
You mentioned that you use 3 cups, which equals 450 grams, but the weight chart at King Arthurs website states that 1 cup equals 120 grams, so that would make 360 grams in total. Did I miss something? I'm new to baking and enjoy these videos very much.
I was so confused because the book has typos as well. Apparently the recipe is 3.75 cups four which ends up being 450 grams. I almost used 360 grams instead too. They linked the recipe for the apple pie and in the ingredients list you can click another link for the exact recipe without typos called “all purpose flaky pastry dough”
Hi there! We recommend letting the pie cool completely at room temperature, putting it in the fridge while still warm will cause the crust to get very soggy. Happy baking! -👩🍳Morgan
I use a 3:1 blend of Granny Smith and Cortland. The apple choice is a big factor in how the pie turns out. So many different tastes, textures and juice content.
As long as the amount of apples used in the recipe is correct feel free you use your favorites or the most readily available to you. Granny Smith is a very popular apple for pies and works well with other apples for a delicious effect. Happy 🍎 baking! -🍮Nicole

People go from one extreme to another regarding hydration of pie dough. 30 years ago the thought was if it had enough water it wouldn’t crack. I think a more hydrated dough is much more manageable and is extremely light and flaky if not over-worked. I don’t think young people make pie crust anyway. If they try to do this exhausting method as a beginner they will fail.
Hi, Rafael! 😊 The steps below, from the recipe, offer the baking instructions for the oven. Fruit pies are best-baked with the raw dough, since these pies have a long bake-time. step #1 "Preheat the oven to 400°F with a rack in the lower third. Line a baking sheet with a silicone baking mat or foil and set aside. " step #10 "Place the pie on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes, then reduce the oven temperature to 350°F and continue to bake until the crust is deeply browned and you can see apple juices bubbling up through the vents, another 1 hour to 1 hour 30 minutes.

Thank your Claire. I just made this for a sweet potato pie & it's really hard and bland. I parbaked it for 375 for 20 mins & 2 mins w/o weights. Is this not supposed to be parbaked? I let it rest for a day and followed the directions (I think)
Hi, Jessica 😊 In this recipe, Claire does not parbake the crust. This pie is in the oven long enough that the crust bakes all the way through it's one bake with the filling. For the next pie, try without the parbake, see how that bakes out, and share if that helped, if you like.

Pie dough can be stored in the freezer for up to 3 months! If the dough is stored in the refrigerator instead, we recommend using it within 2-3 days. Happy baking! -👩🍳Tess
You will want to continue chopping until you see that the size of butter pieces has reached what you are looking for- either larger (half walnut sized) pieces for very flaky dough, or pea sized bits for a more short-bread like texture. You also do not want to move on to the squeezing step until you see that the mixture is evenly hydrated, meaning there are no overly dry or wet patches. Happy baking! -👩🍳Tess
Hey! Apple-solutely! The recipe calls for 3.75 cups of AP flour. Our weight for AP flour is 120g/1cup. 120g(3cups)= 360g. 120g(.75cup)= 90g. 360g+90g= 450g, Let me know if this helps. 😄 Happy pie-baking! -🥐Lily

So she says 450 grams flour is 3 cups here, in her book it says 405 grams but on your website it says every cup of your AP flour is 120 grams so I’m going to try making this with 360- 375 grams since that’s what your website says and people have complained about the dough being dry. Is there any way you could let me know asap which one I should go with?
Hi Summer! Our standard for our website and books is 120 grams of flour per cup, but unfortunately there is no industry standard for this measurement so it may be different in Claire's book. Either will work, just be sure to be consistent in which resource you follow so you don't end up with too much flour or too little. Happy baking! -👩🍳Morgan

Lowering the temperature to 350F gives the apples time to really cook down and the juices to thicken, resulting in a little longer of a bake time. -👩🍳Betsy
I really don't understand the obsession with a "flaky" pie crust? I don't want to put my fork in and have it looks like a pile of crush corn flakes on my plate. I want to break that crust off and use it as a spoon to sop up the juices of the pie. I still think the best (and easiest) pie crust is make in a food processor until you can't see the butter and it begins to clump together. A worthwhile tip that never gets mentioned online is... if you are making pie dough to go into the freezer one still must leave it in the refrigerator for 24 to 48 hrs before freezing. Failure to allow the flour to hydrate before freezing will cause ice particle build up and your dough won't bake evenly. You'll probably end up with soggy areas as well.

Hi, Doug! I did see (and hear from the video) that the type of apples is not explicit. What I did find is the note on the recipe from our website, "*Choose a firm, sweet-tart apple variety, such as Pink Lady." I'd assume she used Pink Lady! Let me know if this helps. 😊🍎🥧 -🥐Lily
@@KingArthurBakingCompany thanks! I usually use jonagold when available or Braeburn but love to hear what others use :)
Curiosity is what helps us grow! You may find this blog helpful, then! (www.kingarthurbaking.com/blog/2016/09/18/best-pie-apples) It's all about apples for pies. 🍎🍏🍎🍏🍎 H-apple-y baking 😄 -🥐Lily
How much butter, how much salt,
In the crust there are 20 tablespoons (283g) unsalted butter and 1 teaspoon of salt. There is a pinch of salt in the filling, which is about 1/16 of a teaspoon. Here's the full recipe: www.kingarthurbaking.com/recipes/cinnamon-and-sugar-apple-pie-recipe? -🍮Nicole
the general rule is 3-2-1 3 flour 2 butter 1 water and this is close but not exactly that, but still you won't go wrong if you used 3-2-1
You don’t have to blind bake the crust?
Hi Katie! You don't have to, and if you're planning to do a top crust it can be kind of tricky to attach it if the bottom crust has been blind-baked. Kindly, -👩🍳Morgan
How is 3 cups 450 g? 0:00
Hey there! The pie dough recipe Claire is using here calls for 3 3/4 cups of flour, which is 450 grams (120 grams of flour per cup). We hope this can help! Kindly, -👩🍳Morgan
###-- Your channels volume is recorded very low, if I turn the volume up, the ads pop up extremely LOUD. Is it possible to record your videos higher?
I wish she’d tell what variety of apple she was using.
Wait! Doesn’t a cup of flour weigh 120 grams - not 150 grams as stated in the video?
Hey there! Claire was weighing out 3 3/4 cups of flour which equals 450 grams. Hope this helps to clarify! Kindly, -👩🍳Morgan
Thank you! Yes, I missed the 3/4 c. part. 😊 Makes total sense now.
2 hour bake time?!
Lowering the temperature to 350F gives the apples time to really cook down and the juices to thicken, resulting in a little longer of a bake time. -👩🍳Betsy
@@KingArthurBakingCompany thanks, I got to try this out.
Is she saying 450 grams of flour or 415?
Hey, Xander! The correct numbers are found in the recipe, linked below the video in the Description box. 😁 H(apple)y baking! -🥐Lily
sorry, this does not do any justice to claire or her work, the audio is horrible. muffled, low and blurred.
bruh the audio at the start was so bad i had to check if my headphones are broken
Thanks for the feedback! We'll ensure the audio levels are better balanced in future videos. -🍰Grace
@@KingArthurBakingCompany thank you for the recipe though
Our pleasure! 😊 Please let us know how your bake goes! -🥐Lily
Claire tasted the pie and they cut it off before she said "MMM". Blashemy!
😂🎉😢😮😊
I really don't understand the obsession with a "flaky" pie crust?
I don't want to put my fork in and have it looks like a pile of crush corn flakes on my plate. I want to break that crust off and use it as a spoon to sop up the juices of the pie. I still think the best (and easiest) pie crust is make in a food processor until you can't see the butter and it begins to clump together. A worthwhile tip that never gets mentioned online is... if you are making pie dough to go into the freezer one still must leave it in the refrigerator for 24 to 48 hrs before freezing. Failure to allow the flour to hydrate before freezing will cause ice particle build up and your dough won't bake evenly. You'll probably end up with soggy areas as well.
I cannot believe the time this apple pie method takes...god ,talk about laboured, it's like there's some mystery to it ,there really isn't
This may be a rotten apple of the bunch for you, but you may find a good apple in our bunch of recipes here! 👉 (www.kingarthurbaking.com/search?query=apple%20pie#recipe_index) 🍎🥧 Happy baking, Simon, however you fancy! -🥐Lily
Way too complicated for most people.
