To prepare the pie, you will need the following ingredients:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For the filling:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
1.6 kg of peeled apples;<\/p>\n\n\n\n
60 g of sugar;<\/p>\n\n\n\n
1 teaspoon of cinnamon;<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For the dough:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
300 g of wheat flour (about 2 cups);<\/p>\n\n\n\n
100 g of sugar (about half a cup);<\/p>\n\n\n\n
200 g of butter;<\/p>\n\n\n\n
1.5 teaspoons of vanilla paste;
1 egg.
Preparation<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Put the grated apples in a saucepan, add sugar and cinnamon. Stir until the sugar dissolves, then cook over low heat until the apples are soft and the liquid has disappeared. The process can take about 30 minutes. Stir periodically to prevent burning. When all the juice has evaporated, remove from the heat and let cool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Add the cold butter, cut into cubes, and rub until the mixture is in the state of wet sand. You can use a knife, a food processor, or just your fingers, avoiding heating the butter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When the mixture reaches the desired consistency, add the egg and vanilla paste. If you don\u2019t have any paste, vanilla extract, or sugar will do. Mix lightly with a wooden spoon until the flour absorbs the moisture, then knead the dough by hand until smooth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Roll out the larger part of the dough and place it in the prepared tin, lining it with baking paper. Try to distribute the dough evenly. This will allow the cakes to bake well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Leave the dough in the fridge for 30 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Place the cooled apples on the pastry base, spreading them evenly over the surface. Allow the pie to cool for a while before baking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Return the tin to the oven at 180\u00b0C with the top and bottom grills on and bake for a further 40 minutes, until the top is golden. If the pie is browning too quickly, cover it with parchment paper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
