Instructions

1. Preparing the Crust

  1. Combine the flour, salt, and sugar in a large bowl.
  2. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, work the cold butter into the flour until it forms pea-sized crumbs.
  3. Slowly add ice water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing gently until the dough holds together.
  4. Divide the dough into two equal portions, shape them into discs, and wrap them in plastic wrap. Chill for at least 1 hour.

2. Preparing the Filling

  1. Mix the apples with granulated sugar, brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and lemon juice in a large bowl. Toss to coat the apples evenly.

3. Assembling the Pie

  1. Roll out one portion of the chilled dough on a floured surface and transfer it to a 10×15-inch sheet pan. Press the dough into the corners and trim the edges.
  2. Spread the apple filling evenly over the crust.
  3. Roll out the second dough portion and lay it over the filling. Seal the edges by pinching the dough together and trimming the excess.
  4. Cut small slits in the top crust to let steam escape during baking.

4. Baking

  • Preheat the oven to 375\u00b0F (190\u00b0C).
  • Bake the pie for 40-50 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
  • Let the pie cool completely before adding the icing.

5. Adding the Icing

  1. Whisk together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  2. Drizzle the icing over the cooled pie for a sweet finish.

Serving Suggestions

Slice the slab pie into squares and serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream. Its rich flavors and flaky crust make it an irresistible dessert for any occasion.

Tips for the Perfect Apple Slab Pie

  • Use a combination of tart and sweet apples for a well-balanced filling.
