- 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.
