Apple Butter Pie

Apple butter pie made classic pie crust, homemade (or store bought) apple butter and a generous dollop of fresh whipped cream.

Hey heeeeyy! I’m a little late this post but who’s keep tracking really?! Especially when you’re getting the recipe to this scrumptious apple butter pie. It’s like the easiest everrrrrrrr & a perfect change to your Thanksgiving table this fall! Yes, we are talking about Thanksgiving because it’s like A MONTH AWAY!!

What is Apple Butter Pie

Simple. It’s basically a classic pumpkin pie but made with apple butter instead of pumpkin pure. Same, soft creamy texture as the classic with the warm cinnamon spice but with a little tang from the apples. It’s got the same, nice thin pie crust & topped with a dollop of fresh whipped cream.

How to make apple butter pie?

For the crust you can use my buttermilk pie crust recipe; one recipe will make two open faced pies, as pictured. You can also use your favorite homemade or store bought pie crust.

For the filling, I first tried it with eggs, sugar & butter but I opted for eggs & sweetened condensed milk for a creamier texture. So this filling only consists of eggs, sweetened condensed milk, apple butter, cinnamon, vanilla & salt.

The apple butter recipe & the buttermilk pie crust recipe are both written down below but you can visit their individual posts for more details & photos on making them.

Important tips to remember:

• Make your apple butter the day before so it has time to fully cool.
• Refrigerate pie crust for 30-60 minutes before rolling out, it will make your life easier.
• Once you’ve rolled out the crust & placed it in your pan, refrigerate it while you make the filling. Make sure the crust feels solid before baking; if it’s not, refrigerate it again with the filling if you have to or else the crust will shrink while baking.
• This recipe fits a short 9″ pie pan, it won’t fill a deep dish pan.
• Allow to fully cool before slicing. I serve it cold.
• Store refrigerated & covered.

How to store the pie

The pie needs to be refrigerated. To refrigerate it whole, either wrap the whole thing in plastic wrap or place it on a board and cover it with a cake dome. You can also slice it and place the slices in an airtight container.

The pie should be good for about a week in the refrigerator.

If you love your classic pumpkin pie, this apple butter version will not disappoint! I hope you change things up this fall & try something new. If you make this make sure to tag me @baranbakery on instagram so we can all join in on the fun! As always, have a blessed day & happy baking!
