Step 1

In a large bowl, cut the butter into the flour and salt.

Step 2

Cut in until you have pebbles-sized pieces.

Step 3

Add in the water a little at a time until it's combined. You may need to add additional cold water to make the dough the correct consistency.

Step 4

Divide the dough into two even balls of dough. Be sure to add some flour to your counter beforehand, so it doesn't stick.

Step 5

Flour a sheet of parchment paper on a work surface.

Step 6

Roll the pastry dough out to about 1/4" thick.

Step 7

Repeat with the other ball of dough.

Step 8

Cover the dough and chill.

Step 9

In a large bowl, combine the apples with the sugar, cornstarch, apple juice, lemon juice, cinnamon, and nutmeg.

Step 10

In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium-high heat.

Step 11

Once melted, add in the apple mixture and cook, stirring regularly, for about 8 - 10 minutes, or until the apples have softened.

Step 12

Remove from heat.

Step 13

Stir in the vanilla extract. Set aside.

Step 14

Once the dough has chilled, remove one tray from the fridge.

Step 15

Cut the dough into circles using a 3-inch cookie cutter.

Step 16

Transfer the dough circles to baking sheets lined with parchment paper, spacing each about two inches apart.

Step 17

Remove the second tray from the fridge.

Step 18

Cut the dough into thin strips that are about 4 inches long. You will need 6 strips per pie.

Step 19

Once you have your circles and lattice cut, preheat the oven to 375F.

Step 20

Spread about 1/2 tablespoon of caramel onto the center of each of the circles. Covering about the size of a quarter in the middle.

Step 21

Add 1 ½ tablespoons of the apple mixture on top of the caramel and in the center.

Step 22

Arrange the lattice tops over each disk by placing three strips horizontally with a small space in between each strip.

Step 23

Add three strips vertically over the horizontal strips, pressing the edges a little bit so they stick to the bottom dough.

Step 24

To make the egg wash, beat the egg with the water in a small bowl.

Step 25

Brush each lattice with egg wash.

Step 26

Mix your sugar and cinnamon, and sprinkle on top of each of the pies.

Step 27

Bake for about 25 - 30 minutes, or until the dough is golden brown.

Step 28

Remove from the oven and serve warm.
