Step-by-Step Instructions for Apple Butter Pie
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Roll out your spelt flour and butter mixture into a 10-inch pie crust, ensuring it’s about 1/8 inch thick. Place it in a pie dish and pierce the bottom with a fork to prevent bubbling. Blind-bake the crust for 15 to 20 minutes until it turns lightly golden all over, then set aside to cool slightly.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the apple butter, eggs, heavy cream, sugar, and spices until the mixture is entirely smooth. Taste the filling and adjust to your liking.
- Once the filling is well mixed, pour it carefully into the pre-baked crust, ensuring even distribution. Bake at 325°F (165°C) for about 40 to 50 minutes.
- Let the pie cool at room temperature for about 1 hour, then cover and refrigerate for at least 6 hours.
- Slice the Apple Butter Pie and serve chilled or at room temperature. Optionally top each slice with maple whipped cream.
