To begin, soak your raisins and cognac together in a little dish.
Preheat your oven to 450 degrees.
In a bowl, combine sugar, flour, cinnamon, allspice, and nutmeg. Stir those together and set them aside.
Slice and core the apples. You can peel them if you like, but I tend to always leave the peel on.
Pull out one of your dough disks, roll it out, and lay it in your pie plate.
Trim or roll the edges, however you like to finish your crust.
Sprinkle a quarter cup of the sugar mixture into the bottom of the dish.
Layer in half of your apple slices and sprinkle those with half of the remaining sugar mixture.
Layer in the other half of the apples.
Then drain the excess liquid from the raisins and sprinkle those over the top.
Finish off with the remaining sugar mixture.
Now for the finishing touch. Very slowly drizzle the cup of heavy cream all over the top.
Place your pie on a baking sheet to catch any drips and bake for 15 minutes.
Then turn the heat down to 350 and bake 55 more minutes.
If your crust starts getting dark cover it with strips of foil, or a crust shield.
Let your pie cool to room temperature and enjoy…or devour it warm if you like.
Top it with some whipped cream or ice cream if so desire.
Enjoy!
