🍏 Prepare the Apple Filling:

1. Mix the Apples:

   • In a large bowl, combine sliced apples, granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, lemon juice, and flour.
   • Toss to coat the apples evenly.

2. Add Caramel Sauce:

   • Drizzle 1/4 cup of caramel sauce over the apple mixture and stir gently.

🥧 Prepare the Pie Crust:

1. Preheat Oven:

   • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

2. Assemble the Bottom Crust:

   • Roll out one pie crust and fit it into a 9-inch (23 cm) pie dish.
   • Trim any excess dough hanging over the edges.

3. Fill the Pie:

   • Pour the apple filling into the pie crust, spreading it evenly.

🥟 Top the Pie:

1. Add the Top Crust:

   • Roll out the second crust and place it over the apples.
   • Trim and crimp the edges to seal, or create a lattice design if desired.

2. Prepare for Baking:

   • Brush the top crust with the beaten egg and sprinkle with granulated sugar.
   • Cut a few slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.

🔥 Bake the Pie:

1. Bake:

   • Place the pie on a baking sheet to catch any drips.
   • Bake for 45-50 minutes, until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.

2. Cool Slightly:

2. Add Butter:

   • Stir in butter until fully melted.

3. Add Cream:

   • Slowly whisk in heavy cream (the mixture will bubble up).
   • Stir until smooth, then add salt.
   • Let cool slightly before drizzling over the pie.
