Ingredients

• 2 large Granny Smith apples
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 0.25 cup Brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 cup Sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
• 8 ounces Cream cheese, softened
• 1 sheet Pie crust (store-bought or homemade)
• 1 large Egg, beaten (for egg wash)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Peel, core, and dice the Granny Smith apples into small cubes.

Step 3

In a medium skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the diced apples, brown sugar, granulated sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the apples soften and the mixture becomes syrupy. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.

Step 4

In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and shredded cheddar cheese. Mix until smooth and creamy.

Step 5

Fold the sautéed apple mixture into the cream cheese and cheddar mixture until evenly combined. Transfer the dip mixture to a small oven-safe dish.

Step 6

Roll out the pie crust and use a pizza cutter or knife to cut it into strips, about 1/2 inch wide. Arrange the strips in a lattice pattern over the dip, trimming any excess dough.

Step 7

Brush the pie crust lattice with the beaten egg to ensure a golden-brown finish.

Step 8

Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the dip is bubbling.

Step 9

Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes before serving.

Step 10

Serve warm with crackers, sliced baguette, or additional pie crust pieces for dipping.
