The Best Flaky Apple Pie (Grandma-Approved!)

From Isabel

Why This Pie Is Perfection

  • Flaky Crust Secret: Using ice-cold butter and a splash of vodka (or vinegar) prevents gluten overdevelopment, resulting in the flakiest texture imaginable.
  • Thick Filling: A combination of flour and cornstarch ensures the filling sets up beautifully when sliced, avoiding a watery mess.
  • Apple Blend: Using a mix of sweet (Fuji, Honeycrisp) and tart (Granny Smith) apples creates the perfect balance of flavor.
