Our old fashioned Caramel Apple Pie, baked with the perfect combination of apples and a rich caramel sauce. An award-winning combination that has been in our family for years.
Preheat oven to 425°F/220°C. In a heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium-high heat melt the butter and then stir in the flour with a flat bottomed wooden spoon until blended and smooth (30 seconds). Then add the water, brown sugar, and white sugar stir and bring to a gentle boil. reduce the heat to low and allow the caramel sauce to simmer.
Peel, core and slice apples, toss with apple pie spice, brown sugar, and white sugar.
Place the bottom crust into a 9-inch pie pan, then fill with the apples.
Slowly pour 3/4 of the caramel sauce over the apples.
Cover with a lattice work crust.
Use the remaining 1/4 caramel sauce and brush over the top of the pie.
Bake 15 minutes in the preheated oven. Reduce the temperature to 350°F/175°C and continue to bake for another 35-45 minutes, until apples become tender.
