Prepare the Crust:

• In a medium bowl, mix flour and salt. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in water, a tablespoon at a time, until mixture forms a ball. Wrap in plastic and refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight.
• Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Roll out dough on a floured surface and place it into a 9-inch pie plate. Bake for 8 minutes. Remove from oven and reduce temperature to 375°F (190°C).

Prepare the Filling:

• In a bowl, whisk together eggs, heavy cream, salt, pepper, and nutmeg. Stir in the grated cheese.
• In another bowl, mix the sliced apples with sugar, cinnamon, and ginger.

Assemble and Bake:

• Layer the seasoned apples on the prebaked crust. Pour the egg mixture over the apples.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the custard is set and the top is lightly golden.

Cool and Serve:

• Allow to cool for at least 20 minutes before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature.
