The Best Apple Pie Recipe

By Astrid Apple


This recipe has two parts. One teaches you the best way to make apple pie crust and the other portion the way to make apple pie filling. Be sure your oven bakes from both sides, otherwise it is best to turn the pie around after thirty minutes.

The best Filling For An Apple Pie Ingredients

2/3 of a cup (160 ml) sugar, 1/2 of a cup (60 ml) flour, 0.5 tea spoon nutmeg, 0.5 tea spoon cinnamon, a pinch of salt, 8 large apples (2.5kg, 5.5 pounds), 2 table spoons of margarine

Directions

Measure the flour. Use a kitchen scale. Set it to zero. Weigh the container you plan to make use of to weigh food. Weigh and measure your ingredients for a recipe just before combining. By employing various distinct bowls, you could have all of your ingredients ready to go when you start cooking. Peel the apples. Core the apples. Take away all portion which can't be made use of or parts which happen to be damaged. Then cut them into even slices - equal perfect squares. After the apples are cut you should have around 2 kg/4.4pounds of apples. Prepare a huge bowl. Put in all the apples and add sugar, flour, nutmeg, cinnamon and salt. Mix well. Now it's time for the apple pie crust.

Apple Pie Crust Ingredients

2.5 cups of white flour or roughly 630 ml, 2 table spoons sugar which is roughly 40 ml, 0.25 tea spoon salt, 5 table spoons of oil (or 200 ml), 8 table spoons of cold water

Instructions

Measure the flour, the salt and the sugar. Mix to be homogeneous. Add oil and shortening to the bowl. Mix to combine. Add water and mix. If the dough feels to dry add more water but be cautious with the quantity. Prepare a surface which has to be floured. Place the dough on it. Knead it together. Separate in two equal halves. Put every half on to a plane and wrap them in saran wrap. Let them rest for a minimum of thirty minutes but no more than a hour. Put it in pie plate. Eliminate every extension from the edges. Now both recipes come together:

Add the filling you've made earlier following other recipe and directions. Cover the filling with some margarine. Roll out the second half in the dough and cover the filling. Use the other end of a spoon to put the edges of the two halves together. Cut slits in the top. Cover the pie plate with aluminum foil if you do not want it to become brown. Bake from 40 minutes up to an hour - bake till the crust turns brown. And your apple pie is ready! Just a little warning - apple pie is incredibly hot inside after you take it out of the oven so be careful. Leave it outside on the balcony or in the freezer for a while so that it cools down.

And the last step of this apple pie recipe? Well eat the pie and enjoy!
