Method
- In a mixing bowl, stir together flour and salt. Toss the cold butter in the flour. Use a dough blender or your fingers to press the butter into pea-sized pieces until you have a coarse flour mixture.
- Make a well in the middle of the flour. Pour ice cold water into the well. Mix until it forms a shaggy dough.
- Turn the dough out onto plastic wrap, press it together, and fold it onto itself until it holds. Don't overwork.
- Cut the dough into two portions, form into discs, wrap in plastic wrap, and chill for at least 2 hours or overnight.
- Roll out the first disc to 1/8" thick, then place it in a 10" pie dish.
- In a bowl, combine apples, cherries, brown sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, and vanilla extract. Toss to coat.
- Fill the pie with the mixture to form a dome.
- Roll out the second disc, cut into strips, and create a lattice on top of the filling.
- Crimp the edges and preheat the oven to 425°F.
- Brush with egg wash, sprinkle with sugar, then bake for 15 minutes at 425°F followed by 50-55 minutes at 350°F.
- Let cool for 1-2 hours before serving.
Notes
Serve with a scoop of ice cream for added delight.
