Apple Almond Pie

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup almond flour
• 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/4 cup butter, softened
• 3 tablespoons cold water
• 4 medium apples, peeled, cored, and sliced
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 egg, beaten
• 1/2 cup sliced almonds

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 375°F.
2. In a medium bowl, combine almond flour and all-purpose flour. Cut in butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Sprinkle water over the crumbs and mix until the dough comes together.
3. Press the dough into a 9-inch pie pan. Place in the refrigerator to chill while you prepare the filling.
4. In a large bowl, combine apples, sugar, flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Mix together until the apples are evenly coated.
5. Spread the apple mixture into the chilled pie crust. Brush the edges of the crust with the beaten egg. Sprinkle with sliced almonds. Place the pie on a baking sheet.
6. Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the apples are tender and the crust is golden brown.
7. Serve warm or at room temperature.
