Step 1

In a bowl, mix 2 ½ cups of all-purpose flour and 1 tsp of salt. Add 1 cup of cold, cubed unsalted butter. Blend until it resembles coarse crumbs. Drizzle cold water over the crumbs while mixing until the dough forms a ball. Split the dough into 2 disks, wrap in plastic, and refrigerate for an hour.

Step 2

In a large bowl, combine 1 cup cane brown sugar, 1 cup white sugar, 1/4 cup flour, 1 tsp cinnamon, 1/4 tsp nutmeg, and a pinch of sea salt.

Step 3

Rinse, peel, and slice apples, then toss them in the dry mixture. Preheat the oven to 400°F (204°C).

Step 4

Grease a pie dish. Roll out one dough disk, place in the dish, and cut the edge evenly. Compactly layer apple slices in the crust. Roll out the second disk, cut leaves, and place them on the pie edge. Add sliced butter over apples, cover with foil, and bake for 1 hour. Uncover and bake for 15 more minutes until golden brown.

Step 5

Cut leaves from the excess dough, bake separately at 400°F for 20 min.

Step 6

Let the pie cool, insert baked leaves, and serve sliced. Add whipped cream or vanilla ice cream if desired. Enjoy your homemade apple pie!
