Steps

  • Step 1

    When ready to cook, set the Traeger temperature to 350°F and preheat with the lid closed for 15 minutes.

    350 ˚F / 177 ˚C

  • Step 2

    Make the crust. In a food processor, add the flour, and salt, and pulse to combine. Add the butter a little at a time while pulsing. Once it starts to looks like cornmeal, add the water until dough starts to come together.

    Ingredients
    • 2 Cup all-purpose flour

    • 1 Teaspoon Salt

    • 1 Cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter

    • 5 Tablespoon cold water

  • Step 3

    Form the dough into a round disc, wrap in plastic, and chill in the refrigerator.

  • Step 4

    While dough chills, place a pie dish or a 10-inch-round cake pan on the grill grates. Add butter and sugar to pie dish. Let it caramelize.

    350 ˚F / 177 ˚C

    Ingredients
    • 1/4 Cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter

    • 3/4 Cup granulated sugar

  • Step 5

    When the sugar caramelizes and has come to a dark amber color, remove it from the grill. Arrange the apple wedges in a fan formation covering the caramel.

    Ingredients
    • 10  Granny Smith apples cut into thick wedges

  • Step 6

    Roll the pie crust into a circle large enough to cover the pan. Prick the pie dough with a fork and cover the pan with the pie dough. Trim the crust leaving room for shrinkage.

  • Step 7

    Place the pie dish on the grill grates, close the lid and bake until the apples are soft and crust is golden brown, 55 minutes.

    Remove the pie dish from the grill, and let sit for 3 minutes. While pan is still hot, place a large plate over the pie and flip over. Serve warm, topped with ice cream or whipped cream, as desired. Enjoy!
