Instructions
- To make the pastry, place the flour, butter and sugar in the bowl of a food processor then pulse until the mixture resembles rough bread crumbs.
- With the mixer running, slowly pour the water in, a spoon at a time, until the pastry comes together in a ball.
- Remove from the food processor. Divide the mixture in two, with one piece being slightly bigger than the other (the bigger half will be for the bottom of the pie).
- Roll the bigger half out on a lightly floured surface, ensuring it's big enough to cover the bottom of your pie dish.
- Place the pie dish in the fridge and allow to chill.
- Roll the remaining dough out and cut into 10 slices, approximately 1.5cm wide. Place on a piece of parchment paper and place in the fridge to chill for at least 15 minutes.
- Pre-heat the oven to 180°C/350°F.
- To make the filling, thinly slice the apples with a sharp knife and place in a large bowl. Add the sugar, spices and lemon juice then mix well. Allow the apples to stand for 15 minutes to draw out excess moisture.
- Stir the flour into the apple filling.
- Remove the chilled pie case from the fridge and brush the edges with egg wash
- Transfer the filling to the chilled pie case then cover the pie with the remaining slices of pastry. Crimp the edges and cut away any excess pastry.
- Brush the pie with the remaining egg wash, cover with foil and place in the oven.
- Allow to bake for 30minutes then uncover and allow to bake for another 20-30 minutes until the pie is golden brown and cooked through.
- Remove the pie from the oven and allow to chill to room temperature before serving with the cinnamon cream or ice cream.
