For the crust:

- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, chilled and cut into small pieces
- 1/4 cup ice water

For the filling:

- 2 large apples, peeled and thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
To make the crust, combine the flour and salt in a large bowl. Add the butter and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add the ice water and mix until the dough comes together. Flatten the dough into a disk, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 375°F. Roll out the dough on a floured surface and transfer to a 9-inch pie dish. Trim the edges and prick the bottom with a fork. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until lightly golden.
To make the filling, combine the sliced apples, sugar, flour, cinnamon, and nutmeg in a large bowl. In a separate bowl, beat the cream cheese, sugar, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Spread the cream cheese mixture over the bottom of the pie crust. Arrange the apple slices on top in a circular pattern. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the filling is set and the crust is golden brown.
This Apple Cream Cheese Pie is a perfect combination of sweet and tangy flavors. The creamy texture of the cheese filling complements the soft and juicy apples perfectly. This dish is perfect for any occasion and is sure to impress your guests.
