Notes
- Use refrigerated butter for better results. The dough should not be warm when you work with it.
- You can also add a 1/4 teaspoon of salt to the recipe. I chose to use none because the apples I used are tangy enough. A pinch of salt would also do.
- For this recipe, use a small to medium-sized pie dish.
- You can also line the pie dough with apple compote before putting the thin slices of apples. This adds extra tanginess and juiciness.
