Brown Sugar Walnut Apple Pie

flaky pie crust

walnuts

apples

flour

brown sugar

cinnamon

nutmeg

(optional)

salt

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Press your piecrust into a 10-inch pie pan if it isn't already in one. Bake for 5-8 minutes, set aside.

Place walnuts in a large skillet and stir over medium-high heat 3-4 minutes until nicely toasted (careful not to burn them though). Set aside.

In a large bowl toss sliced apples with flour to coat. Whisk together brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and salt. Stir in walnuts.

Layer half of the apples in the pie crust. Sprinkle half of the brown sugar mixture over the apples. Top with remaining apples, then with remaining brown sugar mixture.

Bake for 20-25 minutes until apples are tender and very easily pierced with a fork. Serve warm as-is, or with vanilla ice cream.

This Walnut and Mushroom Stout Pie with a flaky puff pastry crust is total plant-based comfort food. Walnuts are ground up with the right spices to make a beef-style vegetarian ground meat and simmered in a rich stout beer gravy with onions, carrots, garlic, and mushrooms. Serve with mashed potatoes and mushy peas for a fantastic meatless Saint Patrick’s Day dinner. This recipe is sponsored by our friends at California Walnuts!
