Matcha Apple Pie

Matcha Apple Pie is a combination of a sweet, gooey apple wrapped in a golden and buttery crust made with Everyday Matcha by Bree Matcha. Pair it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, and you have got yourself a warm and cozy dessert with a modern edge.

📌Ingredients

For the crust:

🍃 2 cups all-purpose flour

🍃 2 tbsp Everyday Matcha (sifted)

🍃 1 tbsp sugar

🍃 ½ tsp salt

🍃 ¾ cup cold butter (cubed)

🍃 4–5 tbsp ice water

📌For the filling:

🍃 4 medium apples (peeled and sliced thin)

🍃 ¼ cup brown sugar

🍃 2 tbsp white sugar

🍃 1 tsp cinnamon

🍃 1 tbsp cornstarch

🍃 1 tbsp lemon juice

🍃 Pinch of salt

📌Instructions

✨ Make the crust: 

🍃 Take a large bowl, whisk flour, matcha, salt, and sugar.

🍃 Add butter and mix with a pastry blender until crumbly.

🍃 Keep on adding ice water 1 tbsp at a time until the dough just comes together. 

🍃 Divide into two, shape into discs, wrap, and chill for 30 minutes.

✨ Prepare the filling: 

🍃 Mix sliced apples with sugar, cinnamon, cornstarch, lemon juice, and salt. Toss well and set aside.

🍃 Assemble: Roll out one dough disc, fit it into a pie pan, and fill with the apple mixture. Top with the second crust (or lattice design), seal edges, and cut small slits for steam.

🍃 Bake: Brush with milk or melted butter. Bake at 180°C (350°F) for 45–50 minutes, until golden and bubbly.

🍃 Cool: Let cool slightly before serving.

✨ Pro Tip:

Dust the top with a little matcha before serving it looks beautiful and enhances that earthy aroma.
