Nothing says traditional American fare more than classic Dutch Apple Pie. In this hands-on class, you will craft each component of this beloved dessert from scratch: flaky, buttery crust, cinnamon-spiced apple filling, brown sugar Streusel topping, homemade whipped cream, and a caramel drizzle.
We'll begin by making the best all-purpose Pie Dough. You'll learn the techniques for mixing the dough, rolling it out, transferring it to the pie plate, and achieving that coveted flaky crust. While the dough chills, you'll peel and slice fresh, crisp apples to prepare the tart filling. For a hint of spice, we’re dressing our apples in cinnamon, nutmeg, and just a touch of lemon. Streusel crumble made from brown sugar, flour, cinnamon and vanilla will give your pie it’s signature crunchy-sweet topping. A sprinkle of chopped dried cherries is the secret tangy finishing touch to bring all the flavors together. For a grand finale, you'll learn how to make creamy homemade whip cream and a classic salted caramel drizzle that’s easy as (you guessed it) pie.
By the end of the class, you'll take home a gorgeous Dutch Apple Pie ready to be baked at home just in time for your next family gathering. Fill your own kitchen with the heavenly scent of those fresh apples and warm cinnamon. This timeless, homespun dessert tastes like it came straight from grandma's kitchen. You'll also leave with recipes and skills to recreate this All-American treat for seasons to come.
