Apple Pie Recipes – The Traditional Pie!

Apple Pie Recipes go right back to the 14th century although they were very different to todays pastries. A cookbook containing the apple pie originated as far back as 1390 A.D.
Apple Pie Recipes Ingredients: 2 ½ cups plain flour, pinch of salt, 250g butter, 2 egg yolks, 1/3 cup sifted icing sugar, 2 tsp grated lemon rind, 1 tbsp lemon juice.
Apple Pie Recipes Method:  Use a bowl to sift flour and salt. Make a well in the middle of flour and add butter slices, egg yolks, icing sugar, lemon rind and lemon juice. Work the well to a paste and work the flour in gradually. Roll pastry into a ball, refrigerate and cover for 30 minutes.
Apple Pie Recipes Filling Ingredients: 5 medium cooking apples, ½ cup apricot jam, 6 cloves, (sugar & milk for glazing).
Apple Pie Recipes Method: Wash, peel and core apples. Slice apples into quarters and slice finely. Sprinkle with cloves. Place 2/3 of the pastry onto a lightly floured board and roll out enough pastry dough to line the base and sides of a lightly greased 28cm x 18 cm pastry tin. Spoon apples into pastry tin and spread jam over apples. Roll out the remainder of pastry to cover the top of the pie. Pinch the top edges around the rim to seal pastry and brush the top with a little milk. Lightly sprinkle sugar over the top. Make sure to slit pie with a knife in 3 or 4 times so that steam can be released. Bake in hot oven for 15 minutes. Reduce heat to moderate temperature and cook a further 25-30 minutes.
