| 1. FOR THE APPLES & FILLING: | 2. Preheat oven to 325°. | 3. Melt the 2 tablespoons butter for the apple filling in a large sauté pan over medium heat. | 4. Add apples and 2 tablespoons sugar; sauté until apples are soft but not mushy, 8 to 10 minutes. | 5. Remove from heat & stir in rum and 1/8 teaspoons salt. | 6. Spread apples over the bottom of the prebaked pie crust. | 7. Thoroughly whisk together this mixture before pouring it over the apples in the crust: eggs, egg yolks, cream, 1/2 cup sugar, vanilla, nutmeg, and remaining 1/8 teaspoons salt; pour over apples in pie crust. | 8. Bake pie until custard is barely set in center, about 30 minutes. | 9. FOR THE ALMOND TOPPING: | 10. Combine almonds, 1/3 cup sugar, and remaining 2 tablespoons butter for the almond topping in a bowl. | 11. Remove pie from the oven; sprinkle pie with topping. | 12. Cover pie with a pie shield if the edge of the crust seems to be overbrowning. | 13. Return pie to oven; bake until custard is almost set but still slightly jiggly in the center, 15–20 minutes more. | 14. Completely cool pie before slicing, or chill pie, then bring it to room temperature when ready to serve. | 15. *Use a pie shield to prevent pie crust from burning. You can buy a premade shield or make your own. Fold a 9" piece of 36" wide foil into thirds so it measures 3x36". Wrap it around the edge of the pie, crimping the shield where the ends of the foil meet. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
