Ingredients

Scale
  • 3¼ cups all-purpose flour (390g)
  • 1 cup + 6 tablespoons unsalted butter (cold 311g)
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ⅔ cup water ice (cold 5.3oz)
  • 1½ cups apple butter (482g) (plus a bit extra for the topping)
  • 3 large eggs (room temperature)
  • ¼ cup dark brown sugar (50g)

  • 14 oz sweetened condensed milk (1 can)
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream (240ml)
  • 2 tablespoons powdered sugar (15g)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the pie crust by mixing flour and salt in a food processor. Add cold butter cubes, pulsing until crumbly. Gradually mix in ice water until dough forms. Chill for 1-2 hours.
  2. Roll out the dough and fit it into a pie dish. Par-bake at 375°F for 20 minutes (15 minutes with weights).
  3. For the filling, combine apple butter, eggs, brown sugar, flour, vanilla, condensed milk, heavy cream, powdered sugar, and cinnamon in a bowl. Mix until smooth.
  4. Pour filling into the par-baked crust and bake at 350°F for 35-40 minutes until set but slightly jiggly in the center.
  5. Let cool before serving.
