Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Can I use store-bought pie crust?
Absolutely! If you’re short on time, store-bought pie crusts can save you a lot of effort. Just follow the package instructions for pre-baking or baking.
What if I don’t have heavy cream for the soufflé cream?
You can use half-and-half or a non-dairy alternative like coconut cream, but the texture may vary slightly.
How can I prevent the crust from getting soggy?
Ensure the apples are drained well after mixing with sugar and that you bake the pie on a preheated baking sheet. This helps create a crisp bottom crust.
Can I freeze the pie?
Yes! You can freeze the unbaked pie or baked pie. To freeze an unbaked pie, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and foil. For a baked pie, cool it completely before wrapping and freezing. Thaw and reheat before serving.
Is this recipe suitable for vegan diets?
For a vegan version, use a plant-based pie crust, substitute the heavy cream with coconut cream, and use aquafaba (whipped chickpea liquid) instead of egg whites for the soufflé cream.
