Spiced up: Add nutmeg, ginger, or cardamom to the filling for extra depth.
Raisin boost: Toss in raisins or sultanas for natural sweetness.
FAQ:
1. Can I use pre-made pie crust?
Yes, it works — just reduce baking time slightly since the crust cooks faster.
2. Which apples are best?
Tart, firm varieties hold their shape and balance the sweetness — Granny Smith, Braeburn, or Honeycrisp.
3. Can I prepare this in advance?
Yes, you can make the filling and dough a day ahead. Assemble and bake when ready.
4. Can I skip the top crust?
Absolutely — the filling will still taste amazing, and you’ll get a rustic, open-faced pie.
If you want, I can also make a Polish version in the same playful, concise style for your Apple Pie Wedges.
Do you want me to do that?
