With the perfect combination of buttery pastry, juicy apples, and aromatic cinnamon, this apple pie is sure to be a crowd-pleaser. Here's how to make it:
Ingredients:
Pastry:
- 225g butter, room temperature
- 50g golden caster sugar, plus extra
- 2 eggs
- 350g plain flour, preferably organic
- Softly whipped cream, to serve
Filling:
- 1kg Bramley apples
- 140g golden caster sugar
- ½ tsp cinnamon
- 3 tbsp flour
Method:
- Preheat your Hysa Kitchen air fryer oven to 190°C.
- Start by preparing the apples. Slice, core, peel, and cut them into quarters that are about 5 mm thick. Spread them out evenly on a baking sheet lined with paper towels.
- In a sizable bowl, combine the butter and sugar for the pastry. Add in one egg yolk and whisk for less than a minute, until it resembles scrambled eggs. Add the flour gradually and mix until it begins to clump. Bring the dough together with your hands, lightly roll into a ball, cover with plastic wrap, and chill for 45 minutes.
- In a large bowl, combine 140g sugar, cinnamon, and flour. Add the apples to the bowl and mix thoroughly by hand.
- Roll out two-thirds of the chilled pastry on a floured surface and use it to line a 20-22 cm diameter pie tin that is 4 cm deep. Trim off the excess pastry and leave a small overhang. Pour the apple mixture into the pastry-lined tin.
- Roll out the remaining third of the pastry into a 28 cm diameter circle and place it on top of the apples. Moisten the edges of the pastry and press them together to seal. Use a sharp knife to make five small slashes on top of the lid to allow steam to escape. Brush the top with egg whites and sprinkle with caster sugar.
- Bake the apple pie in your HYSapientia air fryer oven for 35-40 minutes, until golden brown. Remove from the oven and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before serving.
- Serve with softly whipped cream and an extra sprinkle of sugar on top.
