Chef tips
For a perfect pie, prepare the dough a day ahead and let it rest in the fridge; chilling helps stabilize the fat so the dough doesn't shrink when it meets the sugar during baking. For an upgraded version, use dark brown sugar for a deep caramel flavor. Serve the pie warm with a scoop of premium vanilla ice cream to delight kids and adults alike.
