Ingredients

• 2.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 cup Unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 6 tablespoons Cold water
• 8 ounces Cream cheese (softened)
• 0.5 cups Powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 6 medium Apples (peeled, cored, and sliced)
• 0.75 cups Granulated sugar
• 1.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoons Ground nutmeg
• 2 tablespoons Cornstarch
• 0.25 cups Pure maple syrup
• 2 tablespoons Heavy cream
• 1 large Egg (beaten, for egg wash)

Directions

Step 1

Prepare the crust: In a bowl, whisk together 2.5 cups flour and 0.5 teaspoons salt. Cut in 1 cup cold butter using a pastry cutter or fork until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually add 6 tablespoons of cold water, 1 tablespoon at a time, mixing gently until the dough comes together. Divide the dough in half, shape into discs, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 30 minutes.

Step 2

Cream cheese filling: In a medium bowl, beat 8 ounces of softened cream cheese, 0.5 cups powdered sugar, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until smooth. Set aside.

Step 3

Apple filling: In another bowl, toss 6 sliced apples with 0.75 cups granulated sugar, 1.5 teaspoons cinnamon, 0.25 teaspoons nutmeg, and 2 tablespoons cornstarch until evenly coated. Set aside.

Step 4

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 5

Roll out one disc of chilled dough on a floured surface to fit a standard 9-inch pie pan. Transfer the dough to the pie pan and trim excess dough.

Step 6

Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the bottom of the crust.

Step 7

Layer the apple filling on top of the cream cheese layer.

Step 8

Roll out the second disc of dough and cover the pie with it. Trim excess, seal edges, and crimp as desired. Cut slits in the top crust for ventilation.

Step 9

Brush the top crust with beaten egg wash and place the pie on a baking sheet to catch any drips.

Step 10

Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.

Step 11

Meanwhile, prepare the maple glaze: In a small saucepan, combine 0.25 cups pure maple syrup and 2 tablespoons heavy cream over medium heat. Simmer for 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly, then remove from heat.

Step 12

Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool for at least 30 minutes. Drizzle the warm maple glaze over the top of the pie before serving.

Step 13

Enjoy this rich and indulgent Maple Glazed Cream Cheese Apple Pie warm or at room temperature.
