Ingredients

Scale
  • For the Pie Crust:
  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into cubes
  • 1/4 cup ice water
  • For the Apple Butter Filling:
  • 1 cup apple butter
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • For the Cinnamon Whipped Cream:
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Make the Pie Crust: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour and salt. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually add ice water, mixing until the dough just comes together. Form into a disc, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  2. Preheat and Prepare: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). On a lightly floured surface, roll out the pie dough to a 12-inch circle. Transfer to a 9-inch pie plate. Crimp the edges.
  3. Make the Apple Butter Filling: In a medium bowl, whisk together the apple butter, heavy cream, eggs, sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and nutmeg until smooth.
  4. Bake the Pie: Pour the filling into the prepared pie crust. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the filling is set and the crust is golden brown. Let cool completely before serving.
  5. Make the Cinnamon Whipped Cream: In a chilled bowl, beat heavy cream with an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Add the powdered sugar and cinnamon and continue beating until stiff peaks form.
  6. Serve: Slice the pie and top with a generous dollop of Cinnamon Whipped Cream.

Notes

For an extra touch of flavor, try adding a pinch of ground cloves to the apple butter filling. This pie is best served chilled.
