## Ingredients

- 4 pounds firm crisp apples
- 3 Tbsp lemon juice
- 0.5 cup sugar
- 0.5 cup light brown sugar
- 2.5 tsp cinnamon
- 0.5 tsp kosher salt
- 1.5 tsp freshly grated nutmeg
- 1 stick unsalted butter
- 0.25 cup flour
- 1.5 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 dough disks pie crust dough
- 1 cup sparkling sugar

## Instructions

1. Peel, core, and dice 4 pounds of firm, crisp apples. Use a variety for flavor and texture (Pink Lady, Honeycrisp, Granny Smith).
2. Toss the apples with 3 Tbsp of lemon juice to prevent browning.
3. In a bowl, combine the diced apples with ½ cup of sugar, ½ cup of light brown sugar, 2 ½ tsp of cinnamon, ½ tsp of kosher salt, and 1 ½ tsp of freshly grated nutmeg.
4. Toss to coat the apples evenly.
5. Heat two 12-inch skillets to medium heat. Add one stick of unsalted butter to each skillet.
6. Divide the apple mixture evenly between the two skillets.
7. Bring to a bubble, then reduce heat to medium-low. Stir periodically until tender-crisp, about 6-7 minutes.
8. Stir in ¼ cup of flour in each skillet and cook for 1 minute, until combined.
9. Remove from heat and stir in 1 ½ tsp of vanilla extract in each skillet.
10. Divide the apple filling between the two pie crusts. Top with the other pie crust and weave a lattice top.
11. Brush with egg and sprinkle with sparkling sugar.
12. Bake at 425°F for 15 minutes, then reduce temperature to 350°F and bake for 45 minutes. Do not open the oven door during baking.
