Ingredients

STEP 1: For the pie crust, place flour and sugar in a food processor bowl and place in freezer. Add cubed butter and freeze for 5 min.

STEP 2: Remove the bowl from the freezer and pulse until small chunks form. Stream in water as the processor is on so the dough is crumbly.

STEP 3: Remove the dough and press it together. Divide it in half and wrap each one in plastic wrap. Freeze one for later and refrigerate one for an hour.

STEP 4: For the apple filling, combine peeled and sliced apples with lemon and brown sugar in a bowl. Allow to maerate for an hour.

STEP 5: Strait the juice at the bottom of the bowl and discard. Before assembling, toss the fruits with the vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg and cornstarch.

STEP 6: For the brown sugar streusel, combine the melted butter with the flour, brown sugar and cinnamon and stir with a fork.

STEP 7: For assembly, roll out the bottom crust to a circle that's 1/8-inch thick. Place it into a deep pie dish, bringing it all the way to the top edge.

STEP 8: Dust the bottom of the crust with cornstarch and fill with the apple filling, leaving the juice behind. Sprinkle the streusel on top.

STEP 9: Refrigerate for 30 min and preheat oven to 350F. Bake for 75 min and cool to room temperature. Top with ice cream and drizzle with caramel.
