📝 Preparation Steps
1
Make the crust: In a large bowl, combine flour, salt, and cayenne. Add the butter and, using a pastry cutter, two knives, or your hands, cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Add grated cheese and toss. Add cold water, by the tablespoon, until a rough dough forms. Gather dough into a ball, flatten into 3/4-inch-thick disk, and tightly wrap in plastic. Refrigerate for ⏱️ 30 minutes. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough into an 11-inch circle about 1/4 inch thick. Transfer dough to a 9-inch pie pan, turn overhanging dough under itself to form an edge along the top of the pan, and crimp edges. Chill for ⏱️ 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 425°F. Line the crust with parchment paper and fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake until the crust is lightly browned, about ⏱️ 15 minutes. Cool on a rack and remove the pie weights.
2
Make the filling: Add both types of cut apples to a large bowl and toss with lemon juice and zest. In a small bowl, mix sugar, flour, cinnamon, salt, nutmeg, and allspice. Sprinkle the spice mixture over the apples and toss to mix thoroughly. Spoon the apples into the prepared crust.
3
Make the crumble topping: In a small bowl and using a fork, toss flour, brown sugar, butter, and grated Cheddar cheese. Sprinkle the top of the pie with the crumble mixture. Place pie in the middle of the oven and bake until the topping is golden brown, 50 to ⏱️ 60 minutes. Cool on a rack for at least ⏱️ 30 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.
