Ingredients

  1. 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  2. 3 Golden Delicious apples, plus 3 Granny Smith apples, peeled, cored, sliced thin and tossed with 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  3. 1/2 cup brown sugar, firmly packed
  4. 1/2 cup sugar
  5. 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  6. 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
  7. 1/4 teaspoon salt
  8. 1 teaspoon cornstarch
  9. 2 tablespoons flour
  10. 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  11. 1/4 cup, plus 1 tablespoon sugar
  12. 1 1/4 teaspoons baking powder
  13. 1/2 teaspoon salt
  14. 1/4 cup unsalted butter, chilled
  15. 2/3 cup half and half
  16. 3/4 teaspoon vanilla

Instructions

  1. To prepare filling; melt butter in a 10-inch cast iron skillet over medium heat, add apple slices and cook, stirring frequently, for about 5 minutes. Mix sugars, cinnamon, nutmeg salt and cornstarch in a bowl and gently stir mixture into apples. Continue to cook until apples are soft but not mushy, about 5 minutes.
  2. To prepare topping; mix together flour, 1/4 cup sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. Using 2 knives or a pastry blender, cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add the milk and vanilla, and quickly blend together with spatula.
  3. To assemble the pie; drop heaping tablespoons of biscuit mixture on top of apples, covering most of the center of the mixture. Sprinkle top with remaining sugar and bake in preheated 350 degree oven for 25 to 30 minutes, or until top is golden. Remove pie from oven and let stand for at least 5 minutes before serving.
