- Check this out. Trevor taught me this trick. (all laughing) (funky guitar music) Welcome to the Mythical Kitchen. Where dreams become, dreams again. We’re making Cheeto apple pie inspired by the GMM Alternate Universe Snacks. If you’re following along at home, we’ve broken it down to three easy steps so you can find in the time codes right there. Did that work as the graphic there? – [Ben] Yeah. Yeah – Dope! All right, so in the actual episode, we didn’t make the Cheeto Apple pie. We made another Cheetos creation, but this is an alternate-alternate universe. It’s a universe where graham crackers never existed. So every crumb crust on every pie and cheesecake is made out of Cheetos. And also their B-holes an their mouths are the same orifice, so they have to eat through one and then expel it through the other. It doesn’t make any sense that we have two, it’s just like it’s inefficient, like it should be a closed loop. And that’s the universe I wanna see. (rising drive music) All right, so an gonna go ahead and make the Cheeto crumb crust. Then what you wanna do is massage the Cheetos. So what are you doing when you massage Cheetos? You’re breaking down the enzymes, you’re making it more palatable. Then you gonna dump the whole bag in there. I also like to take a little pinch of flour and then I just add it to it, because that is gonna get flour all over your food processor and then it’s gonna get in the gears and then you’re gonna have to buy a new food processor. All right, and then, uh-oh. (giggles) Why is this a thing every time? Hold on, cause I’m normally using it. I’m normally doing it this way. (beep) Crap. (beep) There we go. It’s on. So it’s gonna run this through the food processor until it’s nice and crummy. All right, so a crumb crust. I like to use a crumb crust because normal crusts are really hard. Like baking pie is hard sometimes and you deserve to take it easy once in a while. You know, you do so much for everybody in your life. You deserve to just take it easy. Make a nice crumb crust. So our Cheetos are all dusted up right there. So we’re gonna take that into our mixing bowl and then we’re gonna take flour… Again, we’re following the same exact principles that you would use with a graham cracker crumb crust and we’re gonna dust the sugar in there, the sugar and butter are really gonna help it stay together. It feels like you’re playing at the beach when you were a child and happy memories are flooding back. So you gotta take all that melted butter, and then you just gonna put it in there and then you really wanna massage it in with your hands. And then you gonna take this and you’re gonna put it into your pie pan and then you’re gonna put the pie stuff in the pie pan with the pie crust in it. That was halfway to a freestyle rap. It was not. That’s my biggest fear, is getting in a freestyle rap battle. We’re gonna go ahead and just start, mounding our crumb crust into our pan. And you want to get a nice even layer across all of that. Now we have to make the apple pie filling to put in the crumb crust, when you don’t bust the pan. Oh my God, I’d be the worst rapper. It’s already so embarrassing. (jazzy saxaphone music) All right, so we’re gonna go ahead and we’re gonna cut up these apples. I’m not gonna teach you how to peel an apple. We’ve got the apples already peeled, and so we’re gonna go ahead and cut them into chunks. So you have team chunk and you have team slice. I’m a team chunk guy. You have too big of an apple slice and you try and put it in your mouth, and then it just kind of like, it like jokers you. All right, so you’re just gonna go ahead and you’re gonna cut around the core. You don’t need the core of this apple and so when you get a big chunk like that, I’m just gonna go ahead, simply cut it in half. Then you’re gonna get nice big old guys like that, So you’re gonna get a ton of great texture from that pie. It’s gonna soften in there and it’s going be nice and (munching) you know what I mean? Like (munching), like mmm! And my favorite thing to do is I take these cores and I just go… (crunching apple) And then you have a really nice snack. And then we’re gonna get some butter melting in there. We’re gonna to crush up some Cheetos. You could use a food processor. Not everyone has a food processor. This goes for the crumb crust too. If you don’t have a food processor. What you do is you take your Cheetos from the bag, and then you just eat a couple cause they’re good. (bag pops) Uh-oh, uh-oh, my bag broke. Why did that happen? – [Nicole] I don’t know, Josh. Why does anything ever happen? – That’s a good point. And we’re gonna dump them into our bag. So we’re actually infusing the Cheetos into the apples as well. You want some sort of starch to go in your pie because that’ll help it not just get completely soggy. Why did I bear hug the Cheetos? That was a weird technique. It’s like a weighted body pillow, except I don’t have one of those. So I Just hug a bag of Cheetos every night and call it my wife. So we’re just gonna go ahead and start bashing. You wanna make sure your fingers are clean and you wanna make sure that all the air is out of the bag, cause it’s gonna pop and then Cheetos dust is gonna get everywhere. And then the rolling pin’s gonna roll off of your cutting board. But that’s fine, and good. Butter’s all melted now, you’re gonna toss in all your apples. This seems like too many apples for one pan. But here’s the thing, it is. All right, so these apples are nice, gonna cook. (intermission music) No, give me guys just one (mumbles) just give me it. (intermission music) (pans crashing) Oh god. Okay. So here’s what you’re gonna do. So you’re gonna take half of those apples and you’re gonna put them in just a brand new pan, and then you’re gonna burn the butter under there. Here’s the thing about France. In France, they burn butter right on the stove and it perfumes everything. It’s like how casinos in Vegas pump cumin and vanilla in there to… (intermission music) So now the apples are cooked down just a little bit and you’re gonna add half your sugar to one pan. Maybe just get a one big old pan, you could do that. That’s how they do it in France, but whatever. And also a little bit of salt. So whenever you salt something in sauteing, I think it’s a really important cooking technique. It’s just drawnin out moisture and then it’s going to get it to cook even more betterer. All right! We’re cooking now Nicole! We’re cooking now! So these apples have started to cook down. They’re getting nice and a little bit soft. You wanna make sure they’re fork tender. I don’t have a fork. (audient laughing) You gonna ahead and dump some Cheetos in there. – [One Audient] Josh, do you have enough butter in your other pan? – No, no, no. (audience laughs) No, no. So there’s not nearly enough butter in that pan. So you’re gonna go ahead, saute this up (audience laughing) and then you can smell the Cheetos cooking right into the apples. All right, so you see we almost have like a nice Cheeto caramel, forming at the bottom of this pan. This is awesome. We’re gonna let that hang out at a little bit lower heat. This pan never started working at all. There’s nothing going on. Save those apples, add that to that pan, throw it into pie crust. I swear to god, the written recipe in the description actually does work. And don’t let my failings, be yours. You are your own person. (panting) Why am I sweaty? (bass driving music) All right, so we have our apple filling right there. And then what’s a Cheeto pie without a Cheeto crumb streusel? And also, I know what you’re wondering. What is the language of an entire race of people who eat and poo from the same hole sounds like? (rooster crow) (lips farting) It’s how you say hello, actually it’s, it’s kind of hello and goodbye and also the noise they make. So we’re going to take Cheetos and we’re gonna put them into a bowl. It’s a pretty common streusel topping. Normally, it would just be with like flour and butter and sugar. But, we got Cheetos and that’s what we’re doing. So we’re gonna go ahead and add sugar to the Cheetos, and then we’re gonna add some flour in there and that’s just going to bind it all together. And you’re gonna give that a nice, good toss. (hands wiping) Aww! And then you’re gonna go ahead and wipe your hands off on your beautiful Mythical Kitchen towels. Great. for any messes you have, physically or emotionally, it helps. We have the pie crust and we have our apple filling, and you got a spoon, and you’re gonna go ahead and take all of those apples and put them into the crust. Uh-oh, whoa. Okay, I say your ahp (giggles) Your ahpples? You got your ahpples all (mumbles) (laughs) You’re gonna go ahead and take the nice streusel topping and you’re gonna put it on dry. And then you’re gonna dot boatar around the top. Boatar (laughs) I’m laughing so hard at bootar. I think we’re losing our minds in here. We’re gonna go ahead and pop this pie in the oven for 400, 18 minutes. (audience laughs) Six degrees of separation from Kevin Bacon. (beep) We’re gonna go ahead and pop this pie in the oven at 400 degrees for about 18 minutes. You want that streusel topping to get nice and crosspy. (clock ticking and rings) All right, now we gotta take the pie out of the oven. Ow, uh-oh, ow, uh-oh. There she is. You see the streusel, all the butter melted through. You’ve got these nice Cheetos that were preserved on top. That’s gonna be a nice little crunch. All the pie is pie. Definitely. What do you have to do with pie? You gotta slice it and you gotta take it out, and you gotta put it on a plate. All right, so you’re gonna take, ow, ow. So I like to use just a pairing knife to cut pie and I have to go straight from the center. You can you hear that shattering crunch, of the Cheetos crest at the bottom and I’m just trying getting a nice clean slice, which is always a struggle. And you’re gonna very gracefully lift the pie out. You gotta coddle it with your hands a little bit. You gotta just mash it with your fist. Wow. Look at her shine. Oh my god. You got a ton of that big old apple there. You’ve got a ton of the Cheetos, cause those are, what? The only two ingredients in here, pretty much, other than a ton of sugar. And now we’re just gonna garnish her up with a bit of Reddi-wip. Check this out. Trevor taught me this trick. (audience laughing) (beep) – [Trevor] Do it higher! – Oh, yeah. (audience cheering) Are you not entertained? All right, so we’re gonna go ahead and put some whipped cream right on top of that pie for a little coup de grace. Little bit of Cheeto dust. Boom! That’s your Cheeto apple pie. I’m gonna go ahead and feed this to somebody because I need to know that my taste buds match up with everybody else and if they say they don’t like it, I’m going to go, “Oh me neither, you’d be weird if you like this.” But I think they’re gonna like it. I hope so. I need them to like it. (driving bass music) – [Josh] Oh it’s bright. I haven’t seen the outside in a while. Hey Jenna. – [Jenna] Hi. – [Josh] Do you mind if I interrupt your work day to feed you pie? – Sure. (mumbles) – [Josh] Do you want to close out any sensitive documents so we don’t see them on camera? – I do. – [Josh] All right so what we have for you today is a Cheeto apple pie. So we’ve made the crust out of Cheetos crumbs and then we’ve infused Cheetos into the actual apples. – Okay. – [Josh] How does this make you feel initially? – Well, I have put a slice of cheese onto apple pie before, so I think it will make me feel good. – [Josh] I think it’ll make you feel good too, that makes me excited. (both laugh) And you have many food allergies, right? – Yes. You’ve almost killed me a few times. – It’s true you had Korean shellfish. (both laughing) All right go ahead and give it a try. How do you feel? I didn’t give you a lot of time to chew. – Oh, wow. I really like it. – [Josh] It’s good, right? – Yeah. It’s not super cheesy. It’s just like enough, like when you put a cheese on top of it but it’s like incorporated. – So you don’t need to like go through the extra step of melting cheese on there and you don’t need to go through the extra step of eating and then expelling it out of a different hole? – I would buy this. – [Josh] Yeah? – Yeah, I would order this from somewhere. – (mumbles) Owe me 12 dollars? Cause like, yeah, we’re on camera. – No, you’re working right now. We’re both working right now. We’re both being paid. – Well that makes sense. (both laughing) All right, well thank you guys so much for watching.
