Apple Pie

Apple Pie

Ingredients:

* 3 large cooking apples
* 2 regular apples
* 3 tsp muscavado/Demerara sugar
* raisins 
* sweet shortcrust pastry (see sweet pastry recipe)
* ginger
* 1 lemon




Method:

1. Prep the apples.  Peel and cut into chunks
2. Prep the pastry and put in the fridge for 20 minutes. 
3. Put the apples, ginger, sugar, raisins, lemon rind and some lemon juice into a pan and simmer on a low heat. Keep stirring until the apples go tender. Then, leave to cool. 
4. Whilst the apples cool, get the pastry ready, split the dough that has been in the fridge in half. Roll out one half and line the base of a greased tin. Roll the other half and make the pie lid and decorations
5. Spoon the apple mixture and put the pie lid on sealing around the edges. Make two cuts into the pie lid so the steam can get out. 
6. Cook for approx 30 minutes in the oven at 180 degrees. 


Extra Tips:

* Can add cinnamon to taste.
