Crust:
- Use a pre-made graham cracker crust for a crunchy and buttery base.
- Blind-bake the crust before filling it to prevent sogginess.
Apple Filling:
- Choose a variety of apples for a complex flavor (e.g., Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, McIntosh).
- Peel and slice the apples thinly for even cooking.
- Add a pinch of cinnamon and nutmeg for warmth.
- Consider adding a handful of dried cranberries or raisins for sweetness and texture.
Custard Filling:
- Use heavy cream instead of milk for a richer flavor and consistency.
- Add a teaspoon of vanilla extract for a touch of sweetness.
- Whisk the egg yolks until foamy for a creamier filling.
Streusel Topping:
- Use brown sugar instead of white sugar for a darker and more caramelized flavor.
- Add chopped nuts (e.g., walnuts, pecans) for crunch.
- Mix in a pinch of salt to balance the sweetness.
Additional Tips:
- Brush the crust with melted butter before assembling the pie to prevent leaks.
- Allow the pie to cool completely before serving for a cleaner slice.
- Top the pie with whipped cream or ice cream for a decadent dessert.
- Experiment with different fruit fillings, such as peaches, blueberries, or strawberries.
- Top the streusel with a sprinkle of oats for a crispy crust.
