  2. Blind bake the crust for 15-20 minutes, or until lightly golden. Allow to cool.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together apple butter, eggs, heavy cream, cinnamon, and nutmeg until smooth.
  4. Pour the filling into the cooled spelt crust and smooth the surface with a spatula.
  5. Bake the pie for 40-45 minutes until the outer edge is set and the center is slightly wobbly.
  6. Cool the pie at room temperature for about 30 minutes before refrigerating.
  7. Refrigerate for at least 6 hours, preferably overnight, to enhance flavors.
  8. Serve with whipped cream or pie crust cut-outs for garnish.
